I think you should first start with the private pilot textbook by a company called Jeppesen:

This book is a textbook that focuses on the fundamentals of being a pilot, and you need to learn these fundamentals first.
The add says you can pick up a used copy for as little as $3! Does Yokosuka have a thrift store? A used book store? There might be one in there.
Read that book cover to cover. Then let us know if you have any questions. (This is how I first got started as a pilot many years ago.)
You have also asked where to do flight training. Choose a place that has nice weather. If you choose a place that has bad weather, you may find yourself spending many days when you are unable to do flight training because of bad weather (wasting time and money).
