it is agreat tool so long as the correct attitude is taken-used. but far too many believe they can duplicate jeet kune do, or atleast immulate bruce lee, and end up with alot of nothing- because they do not pocess the intellect. plus as far as the 8 chain puncher goes you know better, atleast you should. the basics are everything, he(they) will be learning too fast just doing the normal curriculum, and that is why that practitioner had to ask about joint problems issueing( fa jing). the way i view it, the practioner progresses at a steady rate, in fact most people share a similar pattern of learning- if this was not true then why not teach a couple advanced forms, ones that have in them the heart of the style and be done with it. as for other WLers getting to learn from master chan, meeting him, doing a regular class, correcting the material they already have, seeing him do some or all of a basic form- these will all do it for them. hey, let them see 2nd exercise, then they will know how it is done, then when it changes again…???
