1 out of 5 stars Pitiful - One of the worst training videos ever purchased.......2007-05-26

This video was AWFUL! First, the production quality was poor. It was recorded in a dojo with hardwood floors and the sounds was almost unintelligible. But the content, in my opinion, was worse - it focused on teaching a single two stick kata which was described as a soft style dance. There were a few demonstrations of double stick warm up exercises like you would learn in an Arnis course, but almost nothing in the way of technique, strike, or block training. There were a few techniques for using the sticks against an opponent using a Bo staff, but this is not a complete weapons training course by any means. I will not be buying any videos from this author in the future.

5 out of 5 stars Kicking But with 2 Sticks.......2004-07-14

Man! This video was amazing. The skill demonstrated in this video was beautiful. The information was very clear and easily understandable. I love Kobudo and this is definitely one of my favorite videos.

5 out of 5 stars Very accurate and effective!.......2004-07-07

If you don't think you could effectively use 2 sticks to kick some butt,
then just watch this DVD. I just watched it and the guy on the video was
very informative, clear & concise. As far as I'm concerned, these techniques
are very accurate and appear to be very effective.

4 out of 5 stars They finally sent me the DVD.......2003-11-09

They finally sent me the DVD and it is not blank. Please disregard the first statement I made. It did take them three months to replace it, but I did recieve it. The sound quality
is a little rough, but the picture quality is better than most
of the training videos I've seen.

1 out of 5 stars DVD blank, returned to company five weeks ago, not replaced.......2003-09-27

I ordered the DVD over five weeks ago. I recieved the DVD
and tried to play but it was blank. I called the company and they said to send it to them. They knew a batch of DVD's were blank.
Over five weeks later I have not recieved a replacement, a letter or anything. I was ripped off. I would be happy to recant my statement if the DVD shows up in my mailbox and write a glowing review about it. So maybe this would get the company to send me the replacement DVD or send me a refund check. DO NOT BUY THIS DVD!!!!!
