    Gene Chicoine and Green Dragon Studio (John Allen)- Is/was there ever a connection between the two?

    Pretty much the same as the subject. Any additional info or personal experiences training with either party would be appreciated. Thank You.

    I don't get mad.

    I thought Chicoine was the teacher in that duo. :confused:

    Can you tell any more details? :)

    Is Chicoine legit? Is Allen legit?

    Master Gene Chicoine is senior to Sifu John R. Allen. Neptunesfalls, you are incorrect stating that Master Chicoine studies under Sifu John R. Allen. Both of these men have studied under Fee Mon Ong who was legendary in Ohio.

    Master Chicoine then met Grandmaster Chang Tung Sheng who was the leader/family head of Baoting Shuai Chiao. Master Chicoine is the present day leader of the International Shuai Jiao Association. GM Chang gave him the keys the association. Not bad in my book.

    I have the utmost respect for both men. But its a little rude to put Master Chicoine under Sifu Allen.

    In Boston,

    on the Iron Vest tape by Green Dragon, I believe that it's Gene who demonstrates it (although I can't understand his name when he says it, but it sounded like Gene Chicoiwhoever)

    Yes, I think this is a valid point. I think Gene probably does demonstrate it - lol I can't understand his name either.

    Do either have connection/ties to the Green Dragon Society in Chicago?

    No, these are completely different groups.

    The Chicago Green Dragons are legendary, The Green Dragon studios in Ohio (Allen's) on the other hand, is known most for copying Forms filmed at competitions and then working them out off the film and selling them from adds in Inside Kung Fu.

    I have his Tai Tzu tapes...beyond horrible.

    Green Dragon Studios

    Hello,

    I was curious if anyone had the address or a phone number to contact the Green Dragon Studios. I believe they are or were located in Ohio. This is Gene Chicone and John Allens group and produced a series of videos to include Stone Warrior. Anyhow, if anyone can provide a contact method I would appreciate it.


    Peace,

    Dave

    Hi Dave,

    I don't think they are currently in the same organization, although they may have been in the past. John Allen is supposedly based in Stow, but I have never found a school. I think he teaches at a kung fu club at Kent State. I always see flyers, but never checked it out. I do have this though:

    Green Dragon Studios
    c/o Sifu John R. Allen
    PO Box 1601
    Stow, OH 44224

    And Chicone can be reached at:

    World Headquarters:
    Ho Chun
    P.O. Box 9254
    Akron, Ohio 44305
    Email:info@shuaichiao.com

    I know there is a phone number for Chicone's school, and a real address, but I can't find them. Will try later.

    Thanks for the Info

    Hi KungFu Cowboy,

    Thanks for the info I really appreciate it.
    If you do find a phone number I would appreciate that as well.

    I have never had any dealings with Green Dragon but have heard some good things from others. I am interested in possibly checking out some of the videos they offer.


    Thanks again.

    Peace,

    Dave

    Sifu Allen's number is unlisted.

    A few years ago I did the Stone Warrior program for a little over a year. I've written a lot about it on the training forum. Do a search for "Stone Warrior" by "IronFist"

    Their school is pretty hardcore.

    Peace,

    Dave
