In ballroom dancing, you can learn how to dance in bronze level. In order to be good, you have to achieve silver level and then gold level. That takes money and time. Some people learn fast in bronze level. Some people learn slow in bronze level. Some people can reach to gold level. Some people will never reach to gold level.
Learning (know how to do it) and training (be able to do it) are 2 different things. You may learn how to
- use your body to push/pull your limbs,
- coordinate your hand with foot, elbow with knee, shoulder with hip,
- guide your opponent's one arm to jam his other arm,
- borrow your opponent's force,
- use circular motion to deal with straight line motion,
- ...
within 1 hour, It may take you life time to develop and master it.
