Find a Muay-Thai (Thai-Boxing for the uneducated) gym.
Learn this style and your body turns into a battering ram, it's kinda like RL EVE, you'll learn how to max your dps and get the quick ganks, also it'll boost your resistances across the board (errr physical conditioning)
I have 8 years exp of thai-boxing and in no way do i condone un-neccessary violence. It's a quality sport, keeps you fit and is good fun. Also i feel it's one of the more practical styles, and is a good confidence booster for when you're out.
edit: If you want to learn weapons try a find a Kali/Escrima club, it's a Filipino stick fighting style, i done a few sessions back home with some British or World champ, mad fun. Not too sure how many clube there are in the country tho.

The ninja thing is true sadly. I hear ninpo is just karate with gymnastics and some bull**** thrown in for good measure.

I did Ninjutsu for 8 years when I was in my teens. awesome artform, branching from the unarmed combat scenario then onto weapon work. Wish to god I did not have to stop but unfortunately my instructor joined the police force and could not continue his school.

One has to bear in mind, he is doing it for exercise and sport. Street fights... erm... comes under a different rule. Learning martial arts dont make you Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan. If you see a knife, run away ;)
If you see 2v1 or more, run away ;)
HTH, and be careful ;)

Start with Muay Thai (for striking) once proficient at that move to Jujitsu (for your ground work).

I'm in a similar situation...what about tai-chi?
This is for fitness (since apparently it takes 10 yrs to learn to actually fight with..).
Anybody with personal experience?

Advice:
1. Find a teacher who teaches for 2 hours minimum per lesson with reasonable rates.
2. Lessons are about 3 times per week.
3. Do 1 martial art for 3 years before you start to cross train.
4. Always remember that you are not Bruce Lee.

Wudang Palm Chuanfa Kung-Fu aka White Tiger Boxing. Has the more fluid movements as compared to the block movements of Shotokan Karate. Also has very good ground work and takedowns. Wish I still had an instructor nearby.
Personally didn't care for Tae-Kwon-Do as it is primarily side fighting (at least from the two instructors I have tried.).
Would LOVE to find a local dojo for sword forms. Lucky YOU if you have one near your school.
I agree with the try a few lessons and see what you like. There are so many different styles out there you should be able to find one to your liking. Might see if there is one for Krav Maga (sp?) the Israeli martial art that was developed for the military. I have heard some about it and that it is much easier to learn and is also devastating when needed.

Ive done Karate, Jujitsu and Kung Fu. The Kung Fu was Shaolin and was definitely the best of the types i was mucking around in... just anything goes. Really good.
Shaolin Kung Fu = Highly Recommended.

Shaolin Kungu, definately, definately. For best effect, combine hard with soft and also do Tai Chi.
I've done Karate and Taekwondo as well, didn't like 'em.

Being in the USMC (has a new belt system, started little before I got in in 01) and a student, I can say all forms of "combat" fighting they teach on campus are crap (I'm at a big 10 school). If you want to learn how to fight take up boxing. Why? Cause if you are ever in a fight you need to learn how to take a hit, because you ARE going to get hit. That and not being "noob stunned" by the feel of it. After boxing then I would suggest going into some kind of wrestling club, because if you can get them on the ground it is alot easier to win (after you have taken ground fighting classes that is ;) hope this helps

Sound advice, but I always avoid any type of confrontation.
I want to learn a martial art for fun, improve my concentration, discipline etc.
Which is why I chose Iaido, instead of Kendo - Less competetive, and can be practiced solo

would like to do ninpo
saw it on tv... the art of ninjas
Too bad ninja's never really existed, and are a creation of western pop culture.
But ah well.
Actually I belive they did exist... but they where considered less honorable than samurai because they liked to sneak and spy while Samurai's where doing honorable by open confrontations.

Look up for krav-maga. Efficiency that's all. No philosophical blabla or cinema moves. Kali escrima kicks arse too, as well as Jeet Kune Do.
Btw I practiced iaido one year but sadly I crashed my car so no more lessons. Was practicing Tenshin Shoden Katori Shinto Ryu style, one of the oldest school in Japan.

You could specialize in the art of Bar-fite-sheet-doh.
Taught nightly at the local pub-dojo. Shouldn't be hard to find around university.
I happen to be 10th Dan, Red Satchel of Poison and could easily kill you with an olive.

After 10 pints of Stella, I turn into Bruce Lee and could literally take all of you down by just looking at you

I studied and received my black belts in Ju-Jutsu and Kenpo. No martial art will ever teach you everything you need to know, and it's good to have a variety of moves/disciplines to help you in any instance. But the first and foremost thing any martial art will teach you is this:
Avoid a fight at all costs.
Martial arts are meant as a way to create discipline and concentration, and to be used only as a last resort. If you cannot talk your way out of a fight, walk away...if you are pushed into a corner and have no other alternative, then proceed to subdue the situation. If you feel your life is in mortal danger, proceed to defend yourself with restrained force. At no time should you use unrestrained/hostile force in any situation.
There are a lot more things taught, but these are the basics.
As for a style to choose..that's dependant on what you feel most comfortable with. No right or wrong in your decisions, just what feels more natural to you.
I'm going to punch you in the ear and it's going to hurt! |

Any form of martial art should be sufficient. Just need proper training. At the end of the day, real combat and line work are sort of miles apart.
