I think Frank is teaching push hands the way they where done at my tournement? Frank students were good. He had one guy that was good at thowing. Next year should be fun.
Sifu Rudy Curry Jr. He have a BaGuaZhang push hands group every tuesday some where in queens. Its hardcore, Lot of thowing techniques, and most of the guys in his class are ex-judo players that are now learning BaGuaZhang for combat, but the people are cool, and you can learn a lot. I use to go to sifu rudy push hands class all the time, but know I just don't have free time anymore. 718-291-2047

Blacktaoist one more question are these groups for Bagua only or Tai chi and Bagua? Becouse I am doing Chen Tai chi.
the push hands groups do all kinds of push hands methods Tai Chi, (Yang and Chen)Ba Gua, Hsing Yi. From fix to freestyle push hands.
Sifu Rudy push hands Group I know for sure, guys practice throws and take downs within the push hands training. They also practice a lot of Chen Tai Chi and Cheng style BaGua push hands method. Fix and freestyle.
I am learning Bagua in the Houston area, and would be grateful for any information on a push hands group in the Houston area. Especially if they do Bagua. I am my teacher's only Bagua student presently and have no one else to play with :( . Any help would be appreciated.
