In a fight, you had better do what you have to in order to survive. No such thing as a cheap shot in a street fight.

If you go to https://www.winglam.com Master Lam has a master's kit set up with a book, video, and fan. The only other option I know of for videos is tai-chi.com they have several videos on tai chi and bagua fan forms. Does she understand how hard it it to learn from a video? With that in mind fan is even more dificult to learn off of a video.

It's not outside the realm of possibility in our art either, but to also have 2nd and 3rd degrees in at least two other arts by 25? That's the part that I'm having a hard time swallowing. Aodhan The thing that you have to remember is that often time rank progression is sped up since they don't have to learn the basics from ground zero.

In the association I belong to there is a minimum age that each rank must meet. A 25YO 4th Dan is not outside of that scope, but it would be a rare thing.

My wife is a 3rd Dan under my instruction. My father is a 3rd Dan in the same school I started in(Chito-ryu). I have 5 cousins that are BB's in Hapkido. I have 1 cousin that is a WTF 2nd Dan. I trained my sister, 2 brother-in-laws, multiple cousins, and several of my nieces and nephews. We take the martial arts in my family very serious. I, myself, am a 5th Dan in Chito-ryu, 4th Dan in Okinawan Kobudo, and have trained in EPAK, Isshin-ryu, Hawaiian kenpo, and am currently preparing for my BB test in Traditional TKD. VERY serious.
