I know a guy in Chic who's been doing Chen Tai Chi for about two years. They've only recently completed learning the long form, and are starting to learn push hands. Dunno if that sounds like what you want, but if it is I could ask him for more detail.
Also, I think Dr. Brian Wu of the American Combat Shuai Chiao Assn is in Chicago, and if he's not taking new students, I'll bet he's got old students who are.
All my fight strategy is based on deliberately injuring my opponents. -

"It is the same in all wars; the soldiers do the fighting, the journalists do the shouting, and no true patriot ever get near a front-line trench, except on the briefest of propoganda visits...Perhaps when the next great war comes we may see that sight unprecendented in all history, a jingo with a bullet-hole in him."
First you get good, then you get fast, then you get good and fast.
