World Taiji Boxing Association Registered Instructor List.

All instructors registered to teach the Erle Montaigue System can be found on this list.
Anyone not on this list teaches their own interpretation and should not be considered a representative of Erle Montaigue or Eli Montaigue, nor the WTBA.
Therefore, we take no responsibility for what they are teaching.
Erle wrote explicitly about this before his death in 2011. His words all listed on the registration requirements page.

Is there a name missing from the list?
If you think you or your teacher should be on this list, please let us know, perhaps the name is missing due to a clerical error.
If you have lost touch with the WTBA for an extended period, you may have been taken off the list. 
If you would like to start teaching again, get in touch and we’ll get you back on the register no worries, (A test may be needed)
