Please, PLEASE make sure you pick a good grappling coach as oppose to a style.

A good grappling coach is more important then a grappling style since every grappling art has a throw,takedown,submissions,positions.

In laymans term:

1. A Good grappling school has technical student+low injury rate

2. A Bad grappling school has people powering over moves+ high injury rate

While I agree that a good instructor is a great thing to have, you have to remember that not every style may fit your interest or your budget, especially at your age and, whereas it would be reasonable for me as an adult to drive an hour and a half away for a good school, you don't have that luxury.

So yes, look for a great instructor but make sure that the system is something that you're interested in. Just because, (random example) there is a fantastic Aikido instructor doesn't mean that Aikido is something that you want to do.

I agree with you 100 percent the reason I said good grappling coach was because OP was asking what style he should learn since he doesnt get along with the wrestling team at his school.

Personaly my fav grappling art is judo but the judo gyms around my area have a high injury rate so I just stick to boxing and doing private sessions with a judo guy I know.

That being said I would love to join a good reputable judo or sambo gym :)

It begins with the knowledge that the severity of a strikes impact is amplified by a smaller surface area.
