Hopefully I can get some good feedback. I am a new member and this is my 1st post. I have been practicing Tai Chi for over 20 years and dabbled in the various stick fighting arts for about 10 years. I have had no formal training in any stick fighting techniques-only DVDs and partner work with a friend. Recently, I found some interesting cane fighting videos on youtube and am interested in pursuing a formal learning/training program with a cane. It seems like there are 2 major "schools" with formal training programs. 1) Cane Masters with Mark Shuey as the head honcho 2) American Cane Self Defense with Joe Robaino Any thoughts and or experience in either of these schools? I appreciate any feedback at all. Thank you for your help Sincerely, John
