Hello everyone!

I am currently looking for a good school in my area (Denver, Colorado, USA) and before I started just going around town meticulously going to each school, I thought I would come here, in hopes of finding assistance. You see, I have gone into random schools before and have been supremely disappointed by the lack of enthusiasm that they have had for the fighting arts. One school had a dog kennel inside with barking dogs, and an undeniable smell of dog feces all throughout the dojo. And the rates were high! @_@

I'm personally trying to find a good Kung Fu school where I can safely learn conditioning techiques such as Iron Shirt, Iron palm etc. I practice at home currently and I'm practicing Ba Duan Jin, and Yi Jin Jing. I'm learning the Shaolin Xiao Hong Quan as well.

I would be most grateful for any help/tips, and please let this become a general thread on the Best Techniques for finding good schools in your area.
