    dang, they seem to know a little bit about everything.
    "George never did wake up. And, even all that talking didn't make death any easier...at least not for us. Maybe, in the end, all you can really hope for is that your last thought is a nice one...even if it's just about the taste of a nice cold beer."

    "If you find the right balance between desperation and fear you can make people believe anything"

    "Is enlightenment even possible? Or, did I drive by it like a missed exit?"

    It's simpler than you think.

    I could be completely wrong"

    http://www.greendragonkungfu.com/1000reps.html

    I'd like to use it on my Iaido forms.

    You do that many reps with Iaido and I think you will transcend Budo, not to mention time and space as well.

    Yes, I think this is a valid point. I think Gene probably does demonstrate it - lol I can't understand his name either.

    Do either have connection/ties to the Green Dragon Society in Chicago?

  7. #742
    No, these are completely different groups.

    The Chicago Green Dragons are legendary, The Green Dragon studios in Ohio (Allen's) on the other hand, is known most for copying Forms filmed at competitions and then working them out off the film and selling them from adds in Inside Kung Fu.

    I have his Tai Tzu tapes...beyond horrible.

    Exclamation Green Dragon Studios

    Hello. I saw a few posters on this old thread asking about GDS, but most of them such as Akron viper have no contact information. I also saw a few posts against GDS. Such as the one with negative remarks about GDS long fist forms.
    anyhow, if anyone is interested in disscussing GDS with me. my email is tyronedaremo@aol.com. My connection with them is as follows; I spent 3-4 years from about 1982 till 1986 in study with a former student-teacher from GDS from their Chicago location days. this was before their videos were made public and I obtained materials from them only with letter of reccomendation from my teacher in 1985-86. Over the years since they went public i purchased alot of videos to suppliment my own training. I cannot speak for the school , but can happily share from my time and training what information I can provide.
    BTW-My training and experience is not limited to GDS, during 1982-1987 I also trained with a teacher who had a jun Fan instructor, jeet kune Do instructor and was a Kempo stylist before learing JKD principles. I also studied Kempo with Earl Marvin, deceased now, but I believe he was either a first of 2nd generation student of Ed Parker. I also studied Nin jitsu , Koga Ryu, under Steve Miller who was a student under Ronald Duncan. I also studied Tae kwon Do under the Alstons who learned from Jhoon Rhee. Aside from these i have also had training in Boxing, Aikido, and Shotokan among other things.
    I look forward to any disscussions.
    Have a great Day!
    Ty

    Chicago days? Are you thinking of the 'Green Dragon Society'?

    Someone needs to start a third green dragon school to maximize the possibilities these threads hold. The new one should promote cocaine usage to achieve one's "taoist pimpdaddy," and teach shaolin mantis catch wrestling.
