im going to atsugi kanagawa for 10 weeks at the end of september,
i will hopefully be training at roots gym in odawara.
as an american with little to no japanese language experience i was wondering if anyone had ever been in a similar possition at a new gym...you know with the language barrier.
is a training session in japan heavier on ground fighting then stand up?
am i going to get dirty looks because of my tattoo?
anything anyone can tell me is useful.
