Whatever you think of Feeman Ong and his students, they really are dedicated practitioners. If you look in the Akron yellow pages you'll see off shoots of the Feeman Ong school. When he died, his son took over the school and that caused lots of bickering or resentments among other students. He had a huge school, was really into herb formulas that were supposedly secret or very special.He had lots of training programs, from the 100 days arm grabs, to the big and small body, to the power exercises, and lots more. Feeman Ong was legendary in the Cleveland/Akron area. If you look in the Green Dragon catalog, you'll see that a lot of the forms are from the Feeman Ong curriculum. Feeman Ong's main teacher was a master Lau, one of those people who left to ,"go to the mountains." However Fernando Blanco Dopazo (The Mantis Cave)says Feeman Ong studied under Wang Song Ting, a mantis sifu from Shantong. Then there was a master Jin, who was into internal training and of course taught with a lot of heart. Master Kao was supposedly a teacher who pushed you to your physical limits. He's old, in his 80's,and while head of the school,most training is done by his senior students. Master Ong graduated from Barberton Highschool in the late 1940's early 1950's.Master Ong's teachers were supposedly three people, a master Kao Tao Sheng, currently living in Taiwan. One that is not mentioned is Feeman Ong, one of the first to teach kung fu in northern Ohio.
John Allen may have had a number of teachers.
