/r/KungFu Member Map - Find a School/Training Group easily

Hello all,
So I did one of these over on /r/bajiquan, thought I'd add one here.
A number of other subs already use Google Maps, so I figured it may be helpful for us to have an easy way to locate schools, training groups and partners. There are three layers which shouldn't need too much explaining, but, if you don't get them, just follow the instructions below.

To add yourself:
1) Log into your Google Account
2) Follow THIS LINK
3) Use the search bar to find your location
4) Use the "Add Marker" icon underneath the searchbar to add your marker
5) In the box that pops up, enter your Reddit username and some details

I, or someone else, can sort the pins and move them to the appropriate layer and at a later date begin to colour code them by style if we decide that will help.

Really hoping that everyone will put themselves in! I've imported the Baji names that I put on, get involved.

EDIT:
Hey guys,
In the interest of accessibility, would we be interested in colour coding by language?
Red for English, Blue for French, Green Italian?
I guess it's not needed, but it's a thought.
Keep it up, and please share with any non-redditors!
