First of all, where are you? Without some idea of geogrpahical considerations, it's hard to recommend someone who can teach you push-hands.
Second, beware of a tendency toward "chop suey gongfu" -- a little of this, added to some of that, mixed with some of something else. Broad exposure is okay, but skill comes from consistent practice of particular body mechanics, and mixing incompatible arts forecloses development of skill in any of them.
