The twelve advanced weapons forms in this section are VERY SPECIAL in many ways: first, all are composed of technical, highly stylized movement that is artistic and graceful in nature (many excellent for competition and/or demonstration), yet they are filled with lethal patterns for effective & practical combat applications (which Green Dragon's staff breaks down and demonstrates in detail on each video); second, most of them, as well as the sets in the following three sections, are ''Third Level'' and/or ''Closed Door'' forms!! Ours ARE advanced! These are not recommended for beginners-- it would take senior students in the Chinese Martial Arts to really appreciate the possibilities these special forms represent. Most of these are very rare. Finer sets would be hard to come by, regardless of criteria!
