the nearest school affiliated with my assoc. is about three hours away. Therefor I am forced to train quite regularly from videos provided from the assoc. I've decided two things. It is not easy training for my 2nd dan from the videos, and number two.... it is not easy training for my 2nd dan from videos.

 

I do like the fact the every student across the country has access to these videos, and when it comes to the forms, the videos trump the instructors. In other words, slight variations that different instructors might introduce are generally cancalled out when the students make use of the videos. If I train with a club in Ohio, I know I they will be teaching the forms exactly like a club in Florida, or Michigan, etc...

 

Other than that, I think nothing can truly replace the live instructor, but they can be a nice supplement.

Student: "Why did you hit that guy with a chair? Why didn't you use your karate?"

Master: "Hitting him with a chair was the only karate I could think of at the time."

Lesson: Practice until you don't have to think.
