Why would you say it's a waste of money? Do you know what you are actually looking at? Do you study Pak Mei?

i don't maybe he does 25+ years of martial rts experience you see a thing or two. not defending anybody just saying

I study Bak Mei and I have it. It's a good book but nothing really great about it. It shows the form but no applications. It is good if you want to hear Sam Choi's experience with the style but if not then you may not like it. I thought that it was pretty good though.

Please don't take it as a personal attack on the style-I now have 30 plus years (so old !)in the martial world-most in Kung Fu-I know what I am looking at and want -
I have great respect for the system and even saw a Pak Mei guy hit a brick out of the corner of a wall once-(student of Kwong's in Manhattan)

There is nothing of substance in the book-no real theory,applications,usage,context,drills etc-that truly represent the art--for anyone who is really interested in it and wants something other then a gloss over-

But I'm from NY-and we're hard to please
