An Okinawan style of karate, {shorin ryu} and traditional jui jitsu for extra grappling.

If you can't laugh at yourself, there's no point. No point in what, you might ask? there's just no point.


Many people seem to take Karate to get a Black Belt, rather than getting a Black Belt to learn Karate.

Ooh! I guess I'll be a wellrounded fighter when I'm 60.

There is no "best" martial art. A good martial artist is a good martial artist. - various good martial artists

Shotokan

 

Perisai Diri Silat

 

BJJ

 

Shotokan for a good base.

 

Silat for circular and avoidance

 

BJJ for ground work.

 

I should be really good in about 40 or so years.

 

Your mileage may vary

I have to admit that I like more striking than grappling so for me an Ideal MA carrer would be:

 

learn northern shaolin kung fu until you are around 20.

 

From 20 to 35-40 kickboxing, San da or muay thai.

 

From 35-40 onwards Karate and Tai chi chuan.

I'd keep my base in American Kenpo- it's versatile, adaptable, effective.

 

I'd love to be able to add BJJ to that, but I just have to get my grappling when and where I can.

 

Taijichuan-fa, adds immensely to any art you do.

 

Modren combatives, reality and stress training in h2h, knife and firearms, with a lot of realistic scenarios. I prefer the WWII combatives based arts here as they are simple, brutal, and not a lot of fluff.

 

For fun and effectiveness, a good FMA, Silat, WC, Aiki-Jutsu, ..., Ninjitsu might be fun (lot of great toys), ..., training with LEO's, high level security, and others who use their skills, ...there's just so much out there!

Freedom isn't free!

I would keep Kenpo as my base, as well. BBJ....... as well. Some Modern Arnis, and a lot of go-into-a-hells-angels-bar-and-pick-fights-to-test-your-style-jitsu.
