Rep Power: 3 | | | True,..and True! Si-Fu Allen is in EXCELLENT Shape! He is NOT a' "sit in the office" Master! He Lives the life and walks the walk! I think',...if you don't live in Ohio, he will send you a promotional video of a cross-section of forms offered. Si-Fu Allen feels that if you live in Ohio(where the school is located),..then you should make the effort and go to the school to learn it First-Hand. Coach Li |

Rep Power: 3 | | | The 8years I was there, it was based on the Southern Shao-Lin forms from GrandMaster Ong, plus the style-strategy of Tien Shan Pai,..some Choy-Lay-Fut, Hung Gar, White Crane, Linear Ba-Gua Zhong,(which I think they Still call Pa-Kua Chang,..lol')5-animals Tai-Ji,Body programs of Golden Bell, Iron Shirt, Stone Warrior, Iron Palm, and we had many seminars with Masters such as Chang Dung-Shen, his student' Daniel Wang, and Northern long-fist and Mantis influences from GrandMaster Gao Dao-Sheng, etc.',..what most Chinese Masters refer to as the 'Buffet-Table',(as in their religion; a little Daoist, a little Buddhist, a little Kung-fu-dze'). A VERY effective way of cross-referencing and overall movement study! You find out very quickly that there is no such thing as; 'my style is better than your style',..LOL! ALL styles are interesting and effective,..it just depends on the way the student understands and moves with-in them. |

Rep Power: 3 | | | I'm not sure at this point? When I was there from 1974 to the early 80s',...Si-Fu Allen 'was' the Instructor! Some of the senior-students helped-out from time to time running class,..but Si-Fu Allen was in-charge. He never pushed-off teaching jobs on anyone, and he was Always there to answer questions. Since then I went to Cleveland to study Wu-style Tai-Ji Chwen with Prof.' Peter Wang,to Chicago and studied Wing-Chun with Si-Fu Jimmy Yee, then to Sharon,PA. to study Tai-Ji,Ba-Gua,Hsing-Yi,Chang-Chwen & Nan-Chwen with Si-Fu Nick Gracenin,(who is still my current Si-Fu). |

Rep Power: 47 | | Daniel....I have some kung fu bothers/sisters that teach and practice in Muncie, Indiana. I have never met them but they have the same teacher as I do. Do you know any people that study Ng Family Style Kung Fu (Grandmaster John Wing Loc Ng)? Ever hear of Rusty Gray or John Dufresne or Bruce Linville? Dufresne is my sifu. I studied at GM Ng school for 3 years here in Lexington, Ky. Ng Family Muncie, IN
