I never really thought about it.
My teachers, with the exception of my very first one, were direct descendants of Max Schlossberg's teaching, or students of Schlossberg's students. Saul Caston studied with Max Schlossberg.
Sigmund Hering and Sam Krauss were Saul Caston students. Gil Johnson studied with both of them. Nathan Prager studied with Schlossberg.
I'm rambling because I can't come up with an answer to that question.
I think of myself as a Schlossberg-Caston-Krauss-Hering-Johnson-Prager player.
