Default Wing Chun in London

Hi folks

I wish to learn Wing Chun but confused on what school to go to, I am interested in going to the White Lotus wing chun school (http://www.wingchunkungfu.net/) or The Warehouse (http://www.warehousekungfu.com/ http://www.ninobernardo.com/warehouse.html)

Are these schools any good?



I am attracted to White Lotus wing chun because students can engage in full contact sparring after gaining the yellow sash, but what I dislike about white lotus is that uses a sash/belt system and kung fu schools with a sash/belt system usually are stigmitised as McKwoon's. Also White Lotus doesn't allow students to watch a class and asks students to pay £5 for a introductory class.

Also could anyone recommend me other good schools in London and tips on choosing a good wing chun school?

Thanks

Why do you want to learn WC? What do you know about it?

IMHO based on my skim reading the content in their websites I would pick the Nino Bernardo School myself.

In my opinion you should try out both and see which one you prefer.
Only you can decide

Nino Bernardo is an excellent instructor. He encourages his students to practice various sports as well, so that they keep a high level of enthusiasm for their training. He's not averse to practicing & teaching other styles & systems himself. I'd say go for it, but it's your wallet.

I don't know anything about the other school.
