[UnknownAgent]

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has knows any fine schools in Northern NJ that teach either Tai Chi or Bagua. (Or know some schools I should avoid.)

Oh and if you dont want to bad mouth a school over the forum feel free to email me.

Hi,

check out sifu park's student, Ray Ales (sp?)...he has a pa kua school in NJ. He also is an acupunturist. Good teacher. Look up the school on www.pa-kua.com. (http://www.pa-kua.com.)

ALSO if you're serious...there is a guy who drives from NJ to Baltimore every Saturday for class. Class is from 1-4pm. Sifu is there about 2 times a month. You may be able to car pool?

If I am not mistaken, Sam Wiley mentioned a representative of Erle Montaigue ( www.taijiworld.com (http://www.taijiworld.com) ) that teaches in Bergen County. He would definitely be worth looking into based on Sam' recommendation alone.

Al Krych is Erle's senior instructor for the US, and lives in New Jersey. I think he teaches privately now (he's pretty busy as a cop). He's a great guy and I highly recommend him. You can e-mail him at pr@nac.net and ask him any questions you may have.
