    I am learning them as they are being taught . I have teachers from these other styles /systems come and teach .Kung Fu is my life.

    Have any of them certified you to teach?

    How long have you been with "them"? Who are "they"?

    C'mon ... if everything's on the up & up... what's to worry?

    Forgive me if I misunderstand, and for interjecting, but if I may say-

    With all due respect, I think the irony of hearing one SD'er saying this to a former SD/CSC'er who is taking the bold risk of teaching a curriculum without using ties to a larger organization from which he got the bulk of his material is obvious.

    Say, Pot, have you heard about that gent Kettle? I hear he's quite a card. You two may have much in common.

    1. Periodically, Masters from outside the temple were asked to teach their style so the temple wouldn't stagnant.
    2. Master Ie picked up material from different martial artists as he travelled around China, North Korea.

    Ever notice how virtually everyone agrees that 95% of all traditional schools are crap, but NOBODY ever admits to being in that 5%? Don't judge... your skill may suck also...

    When EM master leonard found out some black belts were attending some seminars by teachers from other styles and wanting to teach some of that material, he wasn't too happy about it. He gave them a choice, so they went their own way.

    The $42 copy was a decent deal. $162 is a joke.

    There are many places to buy books from including Abebooks and Alibris.

    Amazon currently has a copy for $20.
    ISBN 0897080998

    Even the Kool Aid drinkers should question spending more than $100 on a copy of this out of print title.

    That makes no sense. What is preventing you?

    No. The $20 copy sold. I would not bother mentioning an over priced copy.
