I don't know Atlanta but here's what I was able to find:

http://www.chienhong.com/- Hung Fist(?) (possibly Hung Gar)

http://www.eagleclawatl.com/- Eagle Claw

http://www.shanshuikf.com/- Hung Gar

http://www.francisfongacademy.com/- Wing Chun/JKD/Muay Thai/BJJ/Kali-Escrima

http://www.lywc.com/- Wing Chun

http://www.pathsatlanta.org/- Bagua/Xingyi/Hunyuan (Chen) Taiji/Northern Shaolin

http://www.jasonlau-wingchun.com/- Wing Chun

http://www.shaolin-world.net/- Shaolin/Yang & Chen Taiji/Sanshou

http://www.myjhonglawhorn.com/Lost_Track_Kung_Fu.html- My Jong Law Horn/Wu Taiji

http://www.iaw-atlanta.com/- Wing Chun

http://www.olivieresmartialarts.com/- Long Hu Pai

http://www.apittman.com/ptt/east/east.shtml- Xingyi/Bagua/Yang Taiji

http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=brucereiter- I know this guy teaches in the Atlanta area, I believe Yang Taiji and Gao Bagua, possibly more. This is the only contact I have, you'd need to message him on youtube if interested.

http://www.taichiatlanta.com/- Hunyuan Taiji (branch off Chen)

http://www.mz108.com/- Mei Zhong Yang Taiji

http://www.taichichuanatlanta.com/- Yang Taiji

That should get you started. I can't vouch for the quality of any of these schools first hand, so go and check them out carefully.

i have heard some good stuff about shawn liu. but shaolin temple based arts? his website says pre communist china and traditional shaolin kung fu. my sifu who i was training with here sifu hill said good stuff about him and my other sifu sharif bey said he trains strong fighters. i dont care for the sport aspect but does he teach real shaolin kung fu and applications?
