Oh well, Chinese Kung Fu is cheaper anyway, and my personal opinion is it is better than majority of Japanese styles. I might just stick to that and Muay Thai. I wanted to find Capoeira in Brazil, but same problem... I guess not many people are interested in full time training anymore....

Not really surprising when it is not an English-native country...

I have a (Canadian) friend who is a fighter out here - his gym teaches MMA in English, but the styles won't be Japanese-exclusive (far from it!). Anyway, I think his place is called Killer Bee - next time I see him, I will ask if he knows of any places more to your requirements
