Hi all,
I currently live in the Cleveland, OH area and would like to train in martial arts. I have visited the Shaolin Institute in downtown Cleveland (www.shaolininstitute.com), and was wondering whether the sifu there (John Ervin, Jr) is reputable. There is another branch of the Shaolin Institute closer to where I live, in Richmond Heights - the sifu there is Gino Belfiore. Has anyone trained with either of these instructors, and would you recommend them? I believe Sifu Gino trained under Sifu John - with that being said, is the level of training at the Cleveland location necessarily better than the Richmond location by leaps and bounds? Any input would be greatly appreciated - thanks!
