Now, I'm a very infrequent poster but I use to lurk on the forum for a long time
trying to get info about styles, schools and teachers before I commented to
start learning a CMA. I got some good info so I am just posting this incase there
is someone like I use to be out there.
I started Chang Chaun about two years ago in the effort to move up to one of the internal arts later on, but after about six months I stopped because of schedule and cash flow issues. During that time I studied at Five Element Kung-Fu/Wu-Su on San Jacinto near downtown. This is Bomani Magharibi's school in which is also teaches PA KUA CHANG, CHEN TAI CHI CHUAN, and HSIN-I CHUAN although it would seem that Long Fist was the biggest class group back then. I work not to far from the school and ran into his son resently and he told me that there was now video of Bomani on the website. Check it out:

I had my reservations about going back to the school (time constraints among other things) but seeing the videos has encouraged me to try to make the time and effort (maybe start back in June).
Ironic though, that I just found out that Charles Graham resently started a school about five blocks away that is also teaching Long Fist. I'm tempted to check his class out just to be curious. His site is:

Both Sifu(s) studied under Madame Wang Jurong.
Check both of their videos out.
