I'm on lesson 8 now and I think he has lots of good points in his videos. On Monday you were short on ideas for technique so this should give you something.

Once you watch a few lessons and kind of get to know him I recommend watching www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2--8yqQVDI&feature=channel_page

Very cool. The flow they have is amazing. Wow.

Question: is what they are doing called tap fighting?

[Darr]

I think that those guys are hilarious not to mention annoying at times.

They do provide solid information though.

I think we ought to do a little more "practice" during the Monday practice. Drills are so useful. I have seen how effective doing the same thing over and over is in my martial arts class. The movements become second nature. You don't even think about them. See also "muscle memory". We could try doing some drills for 15 minutes at the beginning of practice or something. I think it would help a lot.

I agree, he is pretty funny. He has such a good tone of voice for lessons though, he is interesting to listen to.

The first vid there was funny because of his belly.

Yes, that would be "tap" fighting, it is extremely, though it does get faster at times, it is slower than most "tap" fighting than I have seen. It is extremely stylized with a lot of unnecessary movement (makes it fun to watch though.

That said, there are things to be learned here. (goes to watch more)
