Besides Wing Lam and YC Wong in SF, are there any other schools in the East Bay area?
I think those are the big two. Chiu Chi Ling used to teach in Alameda, but not sure if he still does that. There was, and probably still is, a club in Walnut Creek that teaches the Lam Family style. They hosted a seminar several years back. There is Michael Goodwin in SF who started under YC Wong then later trained under the Lam Family. Others I have heard of are students of Wong Sifu and Lam sifu.
Sifu Troy Dunwood used to teach Hung Gar:

He’s now focusing on his own style but you might check him out. Also, I’ve noticed that there is a elderly man teaching a young guy Hung Gar at the park across the street from Lake Merritt BART station on Sunday mornings around 9-10am. I haven’t had the time to speak to him but you might check him out.
I can’t remember who teaches at the Pacific Plaza in Chinatown. YC Wong used to be there but I think it’s someone else now.
Way out in the Easy Bay there is also Sifu George Kikes:

Re:
HaSayFu,
Thanks for the referral. Yes we are still teaching Hung Gar, Choy Lee Fut and Wing Chun, Eight Immortals as well as my Tung Mo Boxing. All are welcomed to stop by and pay us a visit.
Chiu Sifu still teaches out of his home in Alameda, you may want to check out his website for contact information, because he travels alot.
Be leary of those at the Bart Station though, because they used to ask me to video tape myself and give them a copy, seeing that they didn’t want me teaching them out in the public when they were supposed to be “teachers” themselves.
