Politics aside, where can I get a taste of 8 Step Mantis?

I know Earth Dragon in upstate NY. Possibly a good place to start since I'm on the verge of a Qi Quest and there's a Qigong Master near him.

Paul Lin is where, CA?

Su Yu Chang in NYC?

James Shyun - skip since I can't afford the money or controversy.

All this 8 Step talk has me interested in learning a little. Please either post contact info here or by PM.

Thanks.
