BJJ is the fastest-growing art on the island, with gyms around Chatan, Okinawa City and Naha and many English-speaking instructors. Several US-military programmes also teach BJJ and aiki ju-jutsu.
For beginners: Many gyms offer a free week or a drop-in rate. Bring a gi if you have one; ask about loaners.
