Alex, would probably help if you narrowed it down to which styles you're looking for. The obvious one would be Chen taiji, there are several high-level Chen taiji teachers teaching in Zhengzhou such as Chen Zhenglei, Chen Peiju and Ma Hong's senior disciple Gong Dapeng. Think there should also be some good teachers of Tongbei and Xinyi Liuhe there as well.

Thanks Nick for the reply, am just looking for a good old traditional system with someone who can really apply it, Tongbei and Xinyi are perfect.

I just remembered, there is a very famous xinyi liuhe teacher in Zhengzhou called Lu Yanzhi (吕延芝), her father Lu Ruifang was a famous xinyi liuhe master. If I remember correctly their line is a mix of teachings from Ma Sanyuan and Mai Zhuangtu lines. I can try and find contact details if you're interested.

That would be much appreciated Nick, thank you.

If you're interested in Chang Family Boxing, an important precursor of taijiquan, Master Liu Yiming lives in Zhengzhou and is very friendly and approachable.
