Camp Foster (Camp Zukeran) is a large Marine Corps base in central Okinawa, spanning parts of Ginowan, Chatan, Kitanakagusuku and Okinawa City.
58 dojo, gyms and clubs are within about 5 km of Camp Foster (straight-line distance from the middle of the base; the drive from your gate will differ). Arts: Karate (37), Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & Jujutsu (5), Kobudo (Okinawan weapons) (4), Judo (4), Kendo, Iaido & Jodo (4).
4 of them are marked English-friendly or likely English-friendly, and 10 are BJJ, MMA, boxing, kickboxing or Krav Maga gyms, which are often the easiest to join.
Base access: on-base programmes need installation access, and rules change. Off-base gyms need no access and are open to everyone. This guide is independent and not affiliated with any installation, MWR or MCCS.
English support is not stated for these. Many traditional dojo still welcome newcomers who ask politely; see the dojo etiquette guide.
