I am considering doing this with a friend. He wants to get into it, and I want to learn more, so I guess it'd be beneficial to the both of us. That way, we have eachother to practice on, but he's inexperienced and I'm afraid he'll do something wrong and snap my arm...

Has anyone ever bought a DVD? I just want to know if its worth the $50.00 or so that a bulk of the videos charge, and whether or not its' actually helped you...

Any recommendations also?
