I have just moved to the Chicago area and am looking into a school named NorthShore Academy of Martial Arts. The offer instruction in Jeet Kune Do. I have already found a Taekwondo school and am taking classes there and plan on continuing that. I am interested in learning a well rounded art. I am not a big fan of JKD but this guys sounds legit. His web address is nsama.com. I will post his info from his sight tell me if any of you are familiar with him:

Most Memorable Training: The best thing that happened to me was getting to be a student/friend of Guro Ron Balicki. Guro Ron has taken me to new heights that I never before imagined. Opening my first school in 1997 was a major step in my martial art dream. Competing and winning the 98 WEKAF (World Eskrima, Kali, Arnis Federation) Mid-Western Regionals 1st place and took 2nd place in the 98 Nationals. One highlight of my martial art training has been meeting and training with the Grandmaster Dr. Maung Gyi.
