I believe that I would like to retract my earlier inclusion of The Perfect Weapon as a cheesy movie. I just took the time to view it again and decided that it was better than I had originally remembered. Mr. Speakman’s abilities are rather impressive. His acting ability in this movie is right up there with Steven Seagal…. To my knowledge or lack there of, it is not available on DVD. Perhaps one day it will be.

The Perfect Weapon - Jeff Speakman. This movie has some excellent fight scenes especially the one in the Korean Dojo. This movie should perhaps, fall under the same category.

That would be characters like Palpatine, Darth Maul and Darth Vader. Star Wars my friend At 43 I still refuse to grow up. Life is far too short. I listed it (the post) for entertainment.

The Mook Jong in not limited to Wing Chun forms only. It can be used for many different blocking and striking techniques from many different Martial Art forms. Please keep in mind that the Jong is used for practicing centerline techniques. I would not recommend it for Judo throws. Some excellent training videos: The Mook Jong Slam Set Volumes 1 & 2 by Joseph Simonet “Dynamic Wooden Dummy Training for ALL Martial Artists” an excellent source for a modern take on Wooden Man forms and Wing Chun Gung-Fu Wooden Dummy Training by Randy Williams Part 1: Advanced Wooden Dummy Drills, Part 2: Lop Sau, Chee Sau and Dummy Theory.

A thousand thank you's Enviroman. Just the type of information that I have been looking for.

Yes, this I know. The question is, is it effective? Can it be used effectively for Judo throws as well as grappling? One cannot use the descriptions by the company alone as they are trying to sell a product. I am looking for actual testimony by a martial artist and not a salesperson. Incidentally I am not implying that you are a salesperson.

This site has an interesting biography http://www.torynfarr.com/raypark/ "Wu Shu just means 'martial arts' in Chinese," Park explained Ray Park is a student of Wu Shu

Has anyone noticed that Ray Park (Darth Maul) is currently working on Iron Fist of which is due to be released in 2006.? Hopefully there will not be any wirework or at least very little.

Darth Maul

Perhaps the company has a trial period?

Yes, absolutely, I believe that racisms do exist in Martial Arts as I am Sith and my instructor is a Christian, class is actually in a church gymnasium of which my instructor is a member………..

I neglected to mention Darth Maul (Ray Park)

If asked I would recommend “The Tao of Jeet Kune Do” by Bruce Lee

In the beginning it was the television series “Kung Fu” in which martial arts were shown as a mental attitude as much or more so than the physical abilities. As a young lad I rarely was able to see the program as back then we had to use antenna for television reception of which did not work well. I do not take David Carradine’s abilities lightly. I found the characters of Master Po and Master Kan to be very interesting as well, if not more so. I now have the series on DVD and have come to understand that it was indeed the series that sparked my original interest. Now that I study Martial Arts, Enter the Dragon: Bruce Lee, of course. G.M. Remy Presas, Terry Dunn, Randy Williams, William Chung, Joseph Simonet, Steven Cunningham, Greg Kollar, Steven Seagal, Cassius Clay, Jeff Speakman, my current instructor: Master Rick Whitman and anyone else I can learn from “Before I studied the art, a punch to me was just a punch, a kick was just a kick. After I’d studied the art, a punch was no longer a punch, a kick no longer a kick. Now that I understand the art, a punch is just a punch, a kick is just a kick.” Bruce Lee
