Gene Chicoine and Green Dragon Studio (John Allen)- Is/was there ever a connection between the two?

Pretty much the same as the subject. Any additional info or personal experiences training with either party would be appreciated. Thank You.

I don't get mad.
I get stabby.

as far as i know, sifu gene chicoine studied under sifu john allen.

I thought Chicoine was the teacher in that duo. :confused:

Can you tell any more details? :)

Is Chicoine legit? Is Allen legit?

Master Gene Chicoine is senior to Sifu John R. Allen. Neptunesfalls, you are incorrect stating that Master Chicoine studies under Sifu John R. Allen. Both of these men have studied under Fee Mon Ong who was legendary in Ohio.

Master Chicoine then met Grandmaster Chang Tung Sheng who was the leader/family head of Baoting Shuai Chiao. Master Chicoine is the present day leader of the International Shuai Jiao Association. GM Chang gave him the keys the association. Not bad in my book.

I have the utmost respect for both men. But its a little rude to put Master Chicoine under Sifu Allen.

on the Iron Vest tape by Green Dragon, I believe that it's Gene who demonstrates it (although I can't understand his name when he says it, but it sounded like Gene Chicoiwhoever)

Yes, I think this is a valid point. I think Gene probably does demonstrate it - lol I can't understand his name either.

Do either have connection/ties to the Green Dragon Society in Chicago?

[RD'S Alias - 1A]

No, these are completely different groups.

The Chicago Green Dragons are legendary, The Green Dragon studios in Ohio (Allen's) on the other hand, is known most for copying Forms filmed at competitions and then working them out off the film and selling them from adds in Inside Kung Fu.

I have his Tai Tzu tapes...beyond horrible.
