I can understand that you are very accustomed to the teaching style of Sifu Meadows, but to put your Sigung on the spot to open a school in NYC with a Sifu to your liking seems a bit selfish and disrespectful. There is probably a very good reason why Sifu Allan Lee is in NYC. Maybe you should take your Sigungs' advise and keep an open mind. And since you are asking for his help, the least that you should do is address him as "Sigung" which is more appropriate. Just my humble opinion.
