kung fu lessons?
Where can I find a studio in LA that teaches tai chi, hung gar, ba gua, and maybe shaolin?
I’m also interested in ‘praying mantis’ style.

Kung Fu is all over the place. If I were you I would look into Southern Mantis. I know a guy in palm springs who knows everyone and everything in Kung FU. You would need to contact me and give me your phone number and i will hook you up with him. His name is Chris and he is master on Wing Chun, White Eyebrow, Southern Mantis, and Lions Roar.

Any one of the systems you’ve mentioned requires almost a lifetime of practice to become proficient, are you sure you want to study all of them? Perhaps you would like to look for schools that focus on one of them and see if you can become good in one first before moving on to another. Bagua and Taichi are close enough that they may compliment each other, while Hunggar and Northern Shaolin are so far apart in theory it would be very difficult to even bridge the different power issuing gap once you’ve gotten used to one of them. I’m not saying you can’t do it, it’s just a very difficult target to reach if you have never dealt with the depth of kung fu before.
If you are asking about modern wushu routines, then by all means, any wushu training gym would serve you well.
