You can't really learn grappling from tapes. You need an instructor and an uke. Striking and kicking is different; you can just kick a heavy bag.

i think its a given that you can't learn a martial art by just watching, you need an instructor to critique and inform you. however, you can pick things up from tapes and use them, but an instructor will aide you much more efficiently. Also, heavy bags are fine but you still need to learn to parry and block and hit openings and such, you need more than a bag and a tape to be a striker just as you need more than tapes to be a grappler. i think we can all agree on that
