:=:=While I have been given permission by my teacher to teach the forms I have learnt, I have not yet reached a level where I can claim full lineage.  As lineage is quite imporatant in the Chinese systems, I must, out of respect decline to answer. Sorry, no offense meant. :=

That's kind of a strange answer. If he gave you permision to teach, then you should have no real problem saying who he is. If you do, then there is something wrong with the situation.
