Choosing a Martial Art Style

You have a lot of disciplines to choose from when your looking for martial arts. You have stand up only martial arts, grappling only martial arts and mixed martial arts. A lot of time its going to come down what style you prefer but most importantly the environment that you learning in. I always recommend that you go in and check out different schools to get a feel for the instructors and the students. Also make sure its a clean facility, make sure its a certified school, black belt instructors and interview the students to see what they think about the school, see what they feel like they're getting of the program.

You have a lot of martial arts that are based on theory and you also have martial arts practical tested. What I mean by that is punching the air over and over again isn't the best to learn the technique you need to be hitting mitts, kick pads, bags and working your technique. If you're doing grappling you need to learn submission holds and be able to apply them against a resisting opponent so you can make sure your technique works. That's why I always recommend if your looking for a grappling martial art that you go with Brazilian jiu jitsu, hands down the best ground self defense there is. For stand up martial arts I always recommend muay thai kickboxing, the devastating art of eight limbs which is the most dominant stand up martial arts. If you looking for a little bit of everything and an amazing workout I recommend MMA classes.
Make sure when you look for these programs that you look for a school that offers a beginners only program. I highly recommend this, I deal a lot of people that come from other schools and they are frustrated because they just get dumped into a regular class and are basically used as a training dummy. So you want a find a school that has beginner only classes so that you can learn the fundamentals whether your picking brazilian jiu jitsu, muay thai kickboxing, MMA you want to be able to learn the techniques in a safe environment while getting in shape and then as you progress you pick up the intensity into the next level program and into the next level program so you will always have a goal to get that next level which you have to physically be able to complete the class and technically be able to complete the class.
So you have a lot of choices when your looking for Martial Arts. I recommend that you do your research and look around. There are even more styles that I havent covered like karate and tae kwon. You can look at all the major discipline but in the end you'll see that brazilian jiu jitsu, muay thai kickboxing and MMA are the three most dominant and most effective martial arts available. So find a good school online, go in check it out, get started training and strive to reach your goals.
