Hello. I found out that their was a Pak mei school in my city but I'm not sure if I should bother going to check out the school because a friend of my fathers had told me that I should get more information on the school before going to talk to them as a lot of Pak Mei practioners are very selfish when it comes to teaching their art and will often tell you to get lost.
I've have read extensively about Pak Mei kung fu and have been interested in learning it for years but have never been able to find a school here in Calgary. I've studied other styles since age six but none have ever been able to hold my interest for long.
I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could offer me some information regarding this or any other school that may be operating in Calgary.
Thank you

It might be that you have to impress the teacher -- unlike most schools, where they just look for discipline and moral character, a Pak Mei student is supposed to display wit, right?
Mayhaps you'd better come up with a witty introduction before you go talk to the teacher... It's an art I'd love to study myself, though.

That's not a bad idea. :)

Stiles, you can phone me if you'd like (pm me if you're interested) and I'll give you information about martial arts in the city.
If you're set on Pak Mei that's one thing, and I have met some good kung fu guys in the city (although not Pak Mei!) but I'd recommend you try some other things or at least take a look (I can show you).
You're the first other Calgary guy on the forum... sweeet!

I'm not sure if you got my E-mail. So I sent you a private message.
