Im headin over to tokio this year...any suggestions?
Hi guys!
Im headin over to japan to visit some relatives this summer for 3 weeks.
Anybody know a good gym there?
I heard some of them dont accept foreigners?
Some dislike tattooed fighters?
I wouldnt need much technical training or conditioning as the time is rather short and i do all the conditioning and strength training by myself.
So im searching for a gym where i can just sparr everyday(boxing, muay thai or kickboxing)!
I mean its more of a holiday but i still want to trade some leather everyday!

The only reason i know about AACC is one of our coaches past students now lives in Japan and trains there.
Not sure but this maybe some help.
http://www.muaythai.jp/
not sure if they allow gaijin though.
yeah i was thinking about going to fairtex, they allow foreigners as far as i understood them on the phone...
just thought when finally going to tokyo i would rather look for a japanese kickboxing camp for something different(been to muay thai gyms around the world numerous times the last 4 years)

Hey Rob,
I have been living in Japan for 8 years now, work as a muay thai/ fitness trainer here. Have visited Rawaii 3 times.... miss it tons!!
I can suggest some gyms or come and train with me or some of my friends who have gyms!
I train at Weerasaklek/Fairtex on my days off, I prefer training with Thais!
In general there are some differences with foreigners training here in Japanese gyms.
If you are here now, please post your e-mail and we can hook up.
