Ok, now that I finally got the process of moving into my new house complete, and a new, well paying job, I hope to take up martial arts again and practice Kung Fu.
Now all I need to do is check out some schools. I know there are some schools in my area already.
So far I have found 2 Wing Chun (1 is actually Wing Tsun, its at a Gold’s Gym), 2 Mantis schools (1 7 Star and 1 8 Step), Johnny Lee’s White Leopard, a Shaolin-Do (No way I am going to them!) and Shaolin Temple Kung Fu (Temple Kung Fu?). And some other Shaolin schools in Dallas. What I was wondering if anyone knew of any other schools?
I thought some might be secret, there is a Ninjutsu school in my area, but you gotta e-mail them before they consider accepting you and they are not in the phone book. So I thought someone might know of some other schools. Thanks.
Dallas schools
Hey Philbert. Of course, I’m sure you know which of the above schools I’d recommend most, hehe. Let’s see..I can think of several that aren’t on your list. Another big name around Dallas is Jimmy Wong, he teaches northern Shaolin and several styles of Tai Chi. Philip Ng teaches Hung Gar in Richardson here. Ron Van Browning teaches San Soo(Not san shou, San Soo, the style passed down from Jimmy Woo) and several other arts. Eric Mattingly teaches “Free style” martial arts, San Soo and a bunch of other arts combined; it’s a pretty good school though, good atmosphere. Eric Hung teaches Wang Shu Chin lineage(Bagua, Taiji, and Hsing-Yi). Soo Hwa is out in Plano, but I can’t remember the teacher’s name right now..doh!! There’s a Shuai Jiao school somewhere in Dallas, but I’m not sure where it is..I could find it pretty easily, though. I visited one ninjutsu school here, but it wasn’t a memorable visit, haha. STAY AWAY FROM THE WUJI-DO SCHOOL! The guy is nuts, he had one of the same teachers that the mindboxing.com guy had, he’s off in lala land somewhere. Every Dallas area martial artist that has met him has some crazy story about him, lots of mouth fu there, haha. If you need to know any more, or info on some of them, feel free to email me. I know of others, I just listed the major ones here.
