Do you think this is a good school …?

So, I want to learn Traditional shaolin kung fu, and there’s this school. But I’ve already been tricked once into going to a McDojo, and I don’t want it happening again. The school teaches southern tiger style of Shaolin Kung Fu. I need your help (website: http://shaolincentre.com/public/home.php ) They say they have pnly one school in Canada, two schools in Vietname and one in Dominican Republic. They also teach taichi and Chi kung(I think)

Please tell me if this is a McDojo, because if it isn’t I’ll be on cloud nine

Discovering Pure Classical Pilates: Theory and Practice as Joseph Pilates Intended – The Traditional Method vs. The Lies for Sale

Discovering True Classical Pilates looks deeply into Joseph Pilates’ original method of mental and physical conditioning by describing its foundations, goals, movement qualities and benefits.

Instead, Discovering True Classical Pilates harkens back in time to Joseph‘s own two books–Your Health (1934) as well as Return to Life Through Contrology (1945)–by exploring social, economic, psychological and spiritual issues associated with his traditional work. There is so much more to Discovering True Classical Pilates! You will find the treasures of passion, devotion and strong historically accurate technique taught by over 1,000 Academy Directory instructors listed on www.ClassicalPilates.net as we strive to preserve Joseph Pilates’ original method.
