All I'm saying is that the teacher can take you to the gate, but you need to walk through it yourself. Good luck trying to monetize, incentiize and marketize that experience, because you can't in any authentic way whatsoever.

Anything taught to a mass market is by definition 'watered down' - take tai chi, 'karate in the mall' or whatever. That's how you make money. And that gives plenty of people exactly what they want - nothing wrong with that.

No way! ::)

John Wang is a great guy and always a lot of fun to talk with. He is one of my favorite people to connect with at these competitions. 8-)

And BTW, he showed a marked preference for Mexican food at the Legacy event, not a plate of brains. :P

I don't think the people who associate themselves with famous names are all naive, and hoping for inner-gate secrets. I think they regard the association as beneficial to their "credibility", should they one day seek to become a famous name themselves...and I think they are correct.

BTW, I learned Bagua from Paula Abdul. Can I interest you folks in a private lesson, for a reasonable price? :D
