Could you, say, study Kung Fu in your sleep, and in waking life, retain the knowlage? It's an interesting question.
I think that you can't do the above. Not that you won't retain the knowlage, but your bo staff may turn into a candy cane or something :roll:
Hey, said candy cane can still be a deadly weapon... just sharpen it. :wink:
I don't think you could become a Kung Fu master through LD training but feel free to prove me wrong.
:content:
Don't your muscles get electrical impulses in them based on what you're doing in the dream? So you could train yourself in the dream and your muscles would still have some muscle memory.
Theoretically, you could master anything in a dream. As long as your DC opponent is always a good challenge. I don't think that should be too hard; the subconscious is always a step ahead of you anyway ;)
Probably anything could be taught with shared dreaming, with one exception: your muscles wouldn't actually grow stronger. Anything that is purely mental you could learn.
Here's a potential problem: If your teacher isn't present, you could learn things completely wrong if they work in the dream but not in real life. It probably wouldn't be too hard to get your mentor as a DC and learn a stupid jump-kick technique "guaranteed" to knock your opponent unconscious.
I don't think it would be a major breakthrough in kung fu teaching, although it could be useful at times.
you would need to be really good at kung-fu other wise it would be no different than me being neo and killing people with kung-fu :evil:
it is worth a try but i dont expect much
good luck though :bigteeth:
I believe you can learn ... something like parkour... in lucid dreaming there are no physical consequences so if you try a new move you feel every motion of it and you're not afraid of hurting yourself because you know you're dreaming. I love to do Monkey Vaults and huuuge cat leaps...Quote:

I'd love to try somethin like this in a future lucid dream
Its IMPOSSBILE. You cant teach yourself something if you dont know the technique. Its like swinging your arms randomly etc.
Wo wo wo, what i meant to put is that its possible to practice things you already know, things that you know nothing about cannot be learnt, sorry about thatQuote:
