The Monthly Dojo Drop: Reversal Gym Shinjuku Me,We
Me,We Shinjuku is one of the most welcoming and technical places to train in Tokyo. The coaches create a friendly environment while delivering detailed instruction that helps both beginners and experienced grapplers improve. The class I attended focused on spider guard and the black and brown belts took the time to work with every student, offering clear guidance and well‑paced rounds. It’s a gym where visitors feel included, learning feels natural, and the training quality is consistently high.
