Sure there are a few places that integrate stick fighting into their curriculum but it's minimal and I don't wanna sit thru the other stuff just for 15 minutes of Eskrima a week. (I'd rather spend that time training BJJ or boxing)
Anyway I've been lately considering getting some instructional videos to learn from. I've always been against learning from videos as more than a supplementary to training under an instructor but I think I'm stuck.
Anyway I guess I'm curious as to if anyone thinks this is a worthwhile idea? And also if anyone can recommend and tell me a lil about some novice training DVD's (or even books I guess)? I was considering some of the Dog Brothers stuff but am unsure of where to begin. Help please... Thanks!
