    Rather you than me lol , but im not very experienced lol. Yeh good luck youll probably encounter a bit of predjudice and they wont think much of you , so prove them wrong do it for england , do it for the queen, do it for churchill, do it for bacon sarnies.

    I don't know how good you are, but be careful. You know going to a strange gym if you cannot hold your own can get you beat up. I don't suggest this unless you are good. Even at that, this is a lose lose situation. Going without a coach, which I assume, makes you look cocky like you are disrespecting them. Maybe it would be better just to visit and work out without sparring.

    You're right, I also wonder if they would even let someone off the street train/spar. Things may be different there from here, but I cannot see any of the clubs I've trained in letting someone just walk in and spar. If you've got an AIBA passport, bring it just in case. It might help.
