Tanglang Directory

[MantisifuFW]

List Members,

We are attempting to develop an international listing for Tanglang school worldwide rather like the one that the Wing Chun people have assembled for their style. Our listings can be seen at:

http://www.authentickungfu.com/mantis_directory.html

Just click the listing for the country where your school is located and see if yours is listed. If not, please go to:

http://www.authentickungfu.com/email.html

and give us the address and school phone number, (no personal numbers, folks call from all over the world at odd times), website and instructor. We will put up the listing as quickly as possible and let you know so that you can review it. If you have a logo you can include it and we will put it on our links page along with your link.

Right now this listing is on my school's website but it will be moved to the Mantis Quarterly site soon so that it won't be associated with any single organization. Bear with us for the present.

Thanks,

Steve Cottrell

Sifu Cotrell-

"Chinese Martial Arts School" listed in Maine is no longer there. Sifu Brisson left Maine in 2000, and now lives in CT. That email address is also no longer valid. As for an updated listing, sifu is only teaching privately.

List Members,

We have a listing for Asia on the site. Though I have some mainland folks listed, I was hoping to put contact info for Lee Kam Wing's Association in Hong Kong, incase anyone wanted to visit or contact for seminars. If anyone could provide this address, with permission, I would be happy to post it too.

Thank you Dgimbe!

I had wanted to include Sifu Lee Kam Wing in our listings long before now but I did not have access to his information. He is a leading force in the spread and preservation of Hong Kong Tanglang, he should not be neglected!

Nick8step,

Indeed not! We wish to include all, Taiji, Bat Bo, Taijimeihua and Meihua as well as Seven Star. My desire is to use the website to offer listings for all.

The community must come together ultimately. I have hoped that more Bat Bo Tanglang would offer information, articles and addresses but I am sure that some things come only with time and proof that one is sincere and dilligent. They will see one day that I am both!

I would appreciate any information on 8step that you could, with permission, furnish.

Sincerely,

Steve Cottrell
