Martial Arts
Anyone take martial arts? I took tae kwon do about ten years ago and got to a green belt. This time around, I'm looking for something that's geared more towards self defense than flashy tournament stuff, so that rules out TKD and karate. Not a big fan of boxing either.
Looking for something that's decently rounded out with upright fighting and ground sparring. Something that teaches discipline would be nice, and something that teaches simple weapons (escrima maybe?) would be cool.
Right now I'm leaning towards krav maga or shaolin kenpo. Both have free intro sessions that I'll be taking in the next month to check out.
-Shaolin kenpo is $65 a month for one class per week. It's kind of a mix of kung fu, karate, and jiu jitsu.
-Krav Maga is $45 a month for one class per week, or $70 a month for two classes per week, and I can mix-up classes, so if I take krav maga I could also take jiu jitsu or Wing Tzun.
Any experience with these, good or bad points? Any martial art I should look into besides these two?
