I really want to try my hands on IMA, especially Bagua/Pagua or Xing-yi/Hsing-i... but I live in Canberra and it doesn't seems there is any... if you know any place in Canberra please inform me...

Well if there is no local gym/dojo around, are there any alternative way to learn it?

I meet these guys a few years ago through a friend (and so have no idea if still going)but some PRC lads at ANU had a small Yiquan club.
Check out ANU in general,
hope thats of some help.

Try Miles Henderson in Canberra. He teaches Cheng Ting Hua lineage Pakua.
His teacher is Master Liu Jing Ru ( of VCD / Video fame):

But if you are in Sydney, there's a good teacher in the city and also in Parramatta area:

What a conincidence! I went to ANU today and I looked at Yiquan, which is said to be a derived form of Xing-yi quan, and thinking of joining! So yes it is still going and it seem pretty good, it even have its own site: http://www.yiquananu.cjb.net

Since I am going to ANU this year I'll guess I can take Yi-quan on the way, but anyway, thanks everyone for your help!!!
