Greetings all. Long term lurker, first time poster (and not about shaolin-do).
So I'm moving to Seattle soon and, although I hate to do it, will have to leave my current northern shaolin school.
Can any of you direct me to a school in the Seattle area that teaches traditional northern shaolin?
Thanks
Punching Bag.

Never seen anything about Northern Shaolin, here is a link to a list of school someone else on the board came up with a while back...here (http://forum.kungfumagazine.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=14248&highlight=Seatle)
Try the yellow pages too.:D

Thanks for the links. I did a search and never found that thread. If anybody can comment on these schools, I'd appreciate it.

There is a school in Bremerton, across from Seattle (Ferry ride) that teaches Northern Longfist. It's called American Shaolin Martial Arts. It's in the yellow pages. Hope this helps.

Here is an intersting school that seem to teach Northern Shaolin Long Fist and Mantis. I may be incorrect. The lineage looks interesting and substantial:

Their teacher seems to be Kao Tao-Sheng of:

They just opened up a small commercial school at 83rd and 5th.
If you can find the Kona Kitchen (owned and run by the villainous nephew from "Karate Kid II" or, if you're younger, the dad from "Johnny Tsunami"), you can find this place.
FWIW, they're also having some Mustika Kwitang silat guys teach as well.
Other options in alphabetical order:
Xie Bin Can for taijiquan
Michael Li for wushu (recently had the father of Chinese san shou over as a visitor; I can't remember his name right now)
Doug Williams for myjong lawhorn
Frank Wong for Shanxi xingyi
Eagle claw via some people from, I believe, Olympia. A guy I know with tons of prior Korean and Japanese experience trains with them.
Hung gar (I'll leave this to goldenarms since he can be way more specific)
