Are there any good CMA schools in that area? I might be looking to re-locate in that area.

yes, a great one Chris Heintzman is teaching in and around the Chapel Hill Carrboro area...I thought he and his teacher David Chin had a website but I just looked for it and it's not on google. Chris teaches traditional hop gar and tai chi but he is also a pro mma fighter. Best of both worlds :) I guess you'll have to do some looking around for him. He does show up on google in articles so you might be able to find something out.

when I left the area in 89 there was just a bunch of TKD and karate.

also, there is a bagua school

and some tai chi

that's what I know of CMA in the area


here's a BJJ school that trains for MMA. It's run by a guy that I wrestled with in HS.

heh, just looked there closely...the two guys I went to school with, Greg (founder of ROC) and Jason are teaching in other locations now. Durham was there founding location though so I'm sure there's a good team teaching there.
