hopewas said:i've taken ju jitsu, akido, and judo myself.. skip that karate crap.. the first 3 i've mentioned are good to know..you can use the other person's weight against them and learn another person's pressure points.. my cousin took some very expensive lessons in new york from ralph gracie and then taught me (jujitsu) ..the only problem is that classes may be expensive.. with your hair maintanence budget, bills, and paying for lessons, you may have to get another job. karate is only good for discipline..or in short ,.. people like ded pres, who "needs" it
In my experience, you can learn things of value from all arts. IMHO, it really depends on the quality of the teacher, and I am really talking mental qualites rather than physical (some of the best fighters are really terrible teachers!).
Don't regret any of the work I have done.
Good luck
