Tapes and DVD's

Just a few thoughts on the old Wing Chun tapes that now have been pulled out of the attic, dust and all. More than one cobweb included! I have accumulated many of these over the years because I learned a great deal about Wing Chun from them (which is not necessarily the same as "learning Wing Chun"). The great thing about tapes and dvd's is that you can re-wind over and over again. If you miss something the first time, look at it again. I have insomnia fairly bad (the price you pay for a large prostate gland) so have awakened many times at 3 in the morning, gone to the old TV and watched my Wing Chun tapes over and over. A few of them were practically memorized! Of course I realize that all of them are not completely accurate. I learned this the hard way when taking private lessons with Sifu Dan. He pointed out numerous errors to me when I said something about a particular technique or possible principle that I had "learned" while watching the tapes. I do sort of know what to look for now though, so that is a good thing! There are a great deal of good things, including techniques and principles on these tapes. I have learned countless drills by watching and can teach them. I find absolutely nothing wrong with that! Stay tuned.
