Hi KKM!
I'm sure one of the Shaolin Temples (tm) will offer you Shaolin Chin Na (tm) if you wear the official Shaolin T-Shirt (tm) and Shaolin Pants (tm)
Meh...
I got nothin.

go to a decent jiu-jutsu school, then squint your eyes, and you could swear the sensei was a shaolin monk. Chin-na is not a specific style, but specific technique within a style.
Panaca79,

The Norther Manits school, aside from their regular mantis cirriculum, offers a 24 class Chin Na program. The Sifu is quite distinguished. You can check out all the info on his site:

Though, if you're truly serious about learning, I would plan on needing far more than 24 classes to learn. Good luck with your training.
T.F.
Yeah, 24 lessons is about the best you'll do and you should really have some experience before you go to that. Looking for kung fu school that teaches only chi na is like looking for a language school that teaches only verbs.
OK, now watch all heck break loose
I happen to know for a fact they never spar at Sifu Chu's school. If they hit anything like a pad, it is extremely rare. They mostly do forms and basics in the air.
Trying to learn any sort of grappling without live conditions, like resistance, is like learning how to swin by sitting on the side of the pool and waving your arms like a swimmer
Based upon the above observation, after 24 classes you will have nothing.... try a JUDO SCHOOL like Oishi or a BJJ program like Renzo's and after 24 classes at least you will have something you might, gasp, be able to use
Greetings panaca79,
I understand that one of Yang Jwing Ming's students is opening a school in New York City. You may want to contact the YMAA to confirm and get the person's phone number.
I hope for your sake it is true.
