5.0 out of 5 stars It delivers !!!, January 20, 2004

By	island Taekwan Do inc , Daniel F. Patten (freeland, wa United States) - See all my reviews

This video does exactly what it says . It shows one a number of techniques and follows the supporting manual "Comprehensive Applications of Shaoling Chin Na" . The techniques are done smoothly and proficiently "well done" Dr. Yang. All in all a 1st rate production , some may complain that the technique are not shown often enough , only three times , but we all have rewind buttons , then some may complain they are shown too frequently but in different applications for different attacks (can't please everyone) Dr Yang does show many of the same techniques but each time they've got a slightly different twist (no pun intended)and it's useful to see the variation .
What I noticed different in this video from others of the genre was the lack of tape space used for superflous fluff , they didn't waste a lot of time or space , got right down to it no gratuitious advertising or flashy intermissions between techniques , good job. A wealth of information on this tape , will be using it extensively , much to learn , gain.
