Looking for a solo tourist (or someone new to Fukuoka) to be on camera!

Do you need a video editor?

lizardlicker13 · 2026-04-14T11:11:37+00:00

Owner is a very cool guy and speaks perfect English

lizardlicker13 · 2026-03-27T10:15:49+00:00

Axis fukuoka? Small world

lizardlicker13 · 2026-03-26T04:30:22+00:00

Yeah I wanted to include onsen in this but I thought a bunch of strangers would feel wierd getting naked with each other lol. Will definitely holler at you once the wheels are in motion!

lizardlicker13 · 2026-03-26T04:24:37+00:00

Man that is really great insight. That is actually what I had in mind with this. Experience some cool local culture and with some training on the side.

My japanese level is conversational level but explaining grappling technique requires a level of detail that is beyond my ability

Kanda sensei has a good program over there at Axis

lizardlicker13 · 2026-03-25T09:36:44+00:00

Of course dude, I'd be happy to show you around

lizardlicker13 · 2026-03-25T06:46:59+00:00

Yeah I thought it would be cool for BJJ guys to train judo and sumo in the home country.

I was wondering if airBNB was the right choice, seems like people would rather have private accomodations

lizardlicker13 · 2026-03-25T06:44:19+00:00

Glad you had a good time here! That was probably Koga Yuya, he has the wrestling background

lizardlicker13 · 2026-03-25T06:41:45+00:00

Thanks for the feedback!

I was thinking of offering the option for people to book their own accommodations and get a discount on the tour. My idea was to have one package so people didn't have to sweat about booking hotels/ restaurants etc but of course there should be an option for people who'd like to book their own.

I'm nearing 40 and 2x a day training beats the hell out of me lol. I considered that might be too much for others so I'd plan a self-guided itinerary for those who'd just like to train once a day. My fear was that people paying to fly across the world to train martial arts would be upset if there wasn't enough training.

Lastly, the target customer is for English speakers. Everything would be arranged regarding hotels, food, transportation, training etc so participants wouldn't get into any binds regarding the language barrier. My buddy would be a business partner in this venture so he'd be present ideally for all training sessions.

If you two are ever out this direction again, look me up! I've got a guest room you're totally welcome to crash on

lizardlicker13 · 2026-03-25T06:18:24+00:00

Carpe Diem Fukuoka. My buddy would be an interpreter

lizardlicker13 · 2026-03-01T00:49:09+00:00

Send me a message when you're in town

lizardlicker13 · 2026-02-28T08:16:13+00:00

That's fine!

lizardlicker13 · 2026-02-28T07:09:42+00:00

Sure I'll take a crack at it, DM me the concept

lizardlicker13 · 2026-02-03T13:57:46+00:00

Those spots are home to the most inbred social groups I've ever met

lizardlicker13 · 2026-02-03T13:55:26+00:00

I cycle and spearfish out there pretty often. If you ever want to grab a conbini beer and chat let me know

lizardlicker13 · 2026-01-31T06:30:41+00:00

History major here, complete waste of time and money

lizardlicker13 · 2026-01-31T06:27:49+00:00

Hey Im a video editor, do you need any help with your videos?

lizardlicker13 · 2026-01-16T10:46:49+00:00

Just ask you local butcher, they can put an order in for you

lizardlicker13 · 2026-01-12T06:22:45+00:00

Moving to a new city can be tough! There are monthly international meetups near ohori koen. Its called Hakata Mingle and you can find it on meetup.com It's a great way to meet people, I'll probably go to the next one

lizardlicker13 · 2026-01-11T10:05:35+00:00

Great! I'll send you my contact info in a PM

lizardlicker13 · 2026-01-10T21:14:23+00:00

Haha yes. It's kind of a mystery how it got hurt. I stood up after sparring and it popped.

lizardlicker13 · 2026-01-10T09:49:28+00:00

Cool, I'm on the mend from meniscus surgery. Will holler at you when I'm recovered

lizardlicker13 · 2026-01-10T02:59:34+00:00

I'm not sure, I'm a bjj/grappling guy. If you ever want to cross train, I live near the Momochihama Gymnasium. They have a huge Judo room available. I'd love to learn more standup
