August 3, 201016 yr History: I used to practice a mix of Shorin Ryu, Goju Ryu, and Shotokan. I really loved it. After an injury, moving, getting married and having a kid, I find myself in my mid-30's and about 50 pounds heavier than I was when I last practiced martial arts. I just found a Judo school near me, and I was thinking about joining. How is Judo on an overweight beginner (as I feel like I'm completely starting over)? Here's the school's website: http://www.smma.net/ Any and all help is appreciated.

August 3, 201016 yr It says its jujitsu school:)About weight, I think it might help a little, as its harder to move heavier objects.I did some jujutsu in middle school, and as I have been the lightes but the tallest I was easy to throw or get me off balance.Even now in karate, I have long reach ( im 189cm[6'2]) but if someone catches my leg or gets close they can easyli put me down ( i weight only 66kg[145lb])So I think your weight would not be a problem, and after a little work out you will lose a little of it.So good luck in your new school A style is just a name.
August 4, 201016 yr I think the fencing would be a good time. As for your weight, if you get to training, some should come off, and you'll learn to work with it. Good luck! https://www.haysgym.com http://www.sunyis.com/ https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
