Best Martial art?
 

Hey all of you..

I wondered about which matrial art you think is the best and why.

Myself i've trained the korean sport Teakwondo some years ago in the local club.

But i want to start training again and I don't know which matrial art to join this time ..

I'll see forward to your answers.

we'll lets see
 

Personally i trained for 5 months with a 4th degree black belt in ju jitsu since ive been in iraq, that was really fun while it lasted i whould advise ju jitsu.

It entirely depends on what you want from a martial art. Do you want to defend yourself, or do you want to *cough* "kick arse"? Do you want something which teaches you respect and peace, or something with a looser attitude?

Do you want an art which relies on your physical strength, your speed, your balance, or your intelligence? Do you want an art which looks flashy, or one which involves a lot of acrobatics? Do you want one which will get you fit, or one which will require a high level of fitness and flexibility from the start?

There is no best martial art. There is a martial art which is better for you depending on the type of person you are (assuming that you actually stick with it).
I study Aikido. I find it better that karate, kung fu, etc because its a defensive art. Some people will automatically dismiss it though because it deosn't appeal to them.

If you want to study a martial art dont ask for people's biased opinions, go out to the local clubs in your area and either watch a session or ask if you can do a 'taster' session to get the feel of it and see if you like it or not.

Yoshinkan?

Pass, not sure on what style it actually is. Its more closely related to Yoshinkan than Ki-Aikido. The name of the group I'm part of (which has relations to other Aikido groups around Europe) is Dynamic Aikido Nocquet, if thats any help.

Ahh, awesome!

Yeah it is. Theirs a bit of history about the group and its foundings, but I wont go into it here.
