I'm about to move to Sacramento, CA. Any CMA recommendations in the area?

So is your teacher part of the group I posted above?

Thanks! I'll be moving down at the end of September and I may be in touch for some of these.Daniel Pfister moved back into the area a couple of years ago. He's a very concrete sort of guy and has some good skill at Chen taiji. When I was living there he organized Sunday push hands at McKinley Park.

Dan Quincy is a Zheng Manqing (Cheng Man Ching) taiji practitioner with decades of experience. He is very open, sensitive, and willing to learn when other instructors are showing something from their style. Dan is really good about keeping in contact with his students and is training some people through the basics of Peter Ralston's Cheng Hsin system.

Carmine Farruggia has trained with Henry Look and most of the biggest names in the Chen taiji world. Currently he is training under Chen Zhonghua. He is able to show some of the differences between Guang Ping Yang, Chen village, and Chen Practical Method body mechanics. Carmine has a really interesting point of view on a lot of this stuff and his experience and hard work shows when you touch hands with him. I don't think he has a web site any more, feel free to PM me for his e-mail address.
Gail Derin-Kellogg is a long-time practitioner under the National Tang Shou Tao Association but last I contacted her a few years ago she had stopped teaching.
While I have not touched hands with the fellows from the Han shi Yiquan group I have heard good things from my gong fu brother who has trained with the HSYQ guys in Hawaii. Too bad their videos are mostly of Glenn Pasion, I'd like to see some footage of the blokes in Sacramento one of these days.

There is one bloke that does I Liq Chuan out in Roseville if I recall correctly but he's an experienced student, not a teacher if I'm not mistaken.
Also there is an older Chinese guy that practices early in the morning at Fremont Park. I've never talked to him as I didn't want to interrupt his practice. His torso articulation is pretty incredible. I could see a visible wave while he was doing reverse breathing in zhan zhuan once. Don't know his name.
Stephen Tamaribuchi is an experienced Hung Gar and Guang Ping Yang player as well as various Japanese arts. His competition as a young man caused a lot of injuries and he is now a respected shiatsu healer. I don't know if he is willing to teach but we've pushed hands casually.

I think the Davis Experimental College has lost some of its funding or something but you might wanna try contacting them for instructor contact information if they might still give it out.
Avoid the Northern Shou Shu guys, that's Ed Parker's Kempo Karate with a new name on it.
