bob Posted May 2, 2002 Posted May 2, 2002 There isn't anywhere to learn any style of Kung fu where i live, so does anyone know any good learning videos? and from where? Also if people think its possible to learn from a video?
tessone Posted May 2, 2002 Posted May 2, 2002 If you try learning from a video, there's so much you're going to miss. You won't have anyone there to suggest improvements to the things you're doing, and you won't have anyone to practice techniques on, etc. Unless you're really dead-set on kung fu, I'd suggesting finding an art with a studio nearby.

SuperMinh Posted May 4, 2002 Posted May 4, 2002 You can only learn little bits from videos and it is usually better if you already have a good background in MA. I wouldn't recommend learning from a video if you don't know anything about kung fu. There's lots of details that you won't see on a video, even if it's good quality. As the other said, try to find a school near your place, even if it's not exactly the style you're looking for... SuperMinh
G95champ Posted May 4, 2002 Posted May 4, 2002 Videos should only be used to suppliment you learning. However if you are not close to a School. Then any info you can get from a video, book, magizine, internet, tv, etc is good. However don't expect to do everything in the book and be a good MA's. (General George S.

Iron Arahat Posted May 4, 2002 Posted May 4, 2002 Check out http://www.wle.com The videos are better than most, but do not replace an instructor. They do offer a video correspondance course...kinda pricy, and I have no idea how good it is...
