I'm moving to Auckland, New Zealand, at the end of November and I need some names to check out.
I'm currently a student of Cheng Bagua under Meeks and I'm hoping to find an equally powerful bagua teacher over there. If I can't find a qualified bagua teacher, I'm open to any very good taiji, xingyi, tongbei, tanglang, wing chun(buddha hand), daito ryu aikijujutsu, or really anything that has a teacher in possession of real internal power.
The few teachers that I am aware of in Auckland are:
Marcus Zhao - Yang Taijiquan, student of Fu Zhongwen and Fu Shengyuan
Orlando Garcia - Jiang Rongqiao Baguazhang, student of Kang Gewu
Danny Gordon - unknown bagua through Robert Gemmell
Melissa Ng - Chen Taijiquan, formal disciple of Zhu Tiancai
Patrick Kelly, Yek Sing Ong, Wee Kee Jin - Taijiquan and White Crane, indoor students of Huang Xingxian
Richard Hwang - baji, xingyi, bagua, etc… Wu Tan(g) system via Liu Yun Qiao
Alan Roberts - aikido and cheng hsin, student of Peter Ralston and various aikidoka
If anyone can vouch for any of these teachers, from personal interaction or just through reliable word, please let me know.
Also, I would love it if anyone can add to the list of teachers worth looking into I would be very grateful.
Thank you.
Scott
