Can you tell me some of the pro%26#039;s and cons of each? Also, which one in your opinion is the best? I prefer the one that would help you if you get like attacked by some burgler or kid on the street...|||Judo- pros Good throws, sweeps, full resistance sparring,
cons- half ground, half standup, sport, comp. focus
BJJ- pros Excellent groundwork, full resistance sparring, proven itself in the MMA comp.
cons- sport focus, few throws,
Aikido- pros- it looks pretty
cons- no sparring, unrealistic throws, takes forever to learn, no ground game
Tae kwon do- pros- stand up art, good kicks thats it
cons- hard to find a good school, unrealistic, 90% kicks|||I%26#039;m going to recommend my own style, kenpo, if you mainly want to learn self defense. If your more into competeing, tae kwon do or jiu-jitsu is good; karate, aikido, and judo are all good for self defense as well as krav maga. Its your choice. If you like to know about kenpo you can e-mail me.|||I can only talk from experience on aikido. It%26#039;s a bit of an outsider within the martial arts it teaches the principle of non resistance (which is probably the hardest lesson in aikido) whatever comes your way, get out of it%26#039;s way and handle it from a safe angle. Some of the techniques seem unpractical and complicated at first but given time you%26#039;ll learn to refine these techniques to a point where there is hardly any technique left. Plus if you look a bit outside the box you can employ some efficient strikes within what you do. That doesn%26#039;t mean that the techniques employed in aikido are no good. If properly applied they can teach you to break boned dislocate members or kill people without too much hassle. But the true idea is that aikido is the art of peace.|||Well fastfist doesnt know what he is talking about when it comes to Aikido
Judo- pros Good throws, sweeps, full resistance sparring,
cons- half ground, half standup, sport, comp. focus
BJJ- pros Excellent groundwork, full resistance sparring, cons- sport focus, few throws,no good for more than one attacker
Aikido- pros-multiple attackers,jointlocks,pins,Good throws,sweeps,full resistance sparring,good strikes,sword work,jo staff work, ground work,it is made to get in and get out no fooling around with them,
cons-it is hard to find a good school/Dojo
There are many styles of Aikido try to find one of these styles they are more practical style of Aikido Shinbu,Yoshinkan,Tomiki
Tae kwon do- pros- stand up art, good kicks thats it
cons- no good for more than one attacker,hard to find a good school, unrealistic, 90% kicks|||fastfist and sixtus pretty much nailed it, but I%26#039;d give aikido a little more credit than they did. It seems too complicated for most people to use in real life, though.
One important thing that hasn%26#039;t been said: Judo%26#039;s biggest drawback is how hard it is on your body. Because judo is so heavy on throws and practice really is done at full strength, it can do a lot of permanent damage to your body over time. If you get thrown thirty times a day, twice a week, for ten or twenty years, you risk some serious back and shoulder damage. -yk|||fastfist pretty much covered it.
Aikido and taekwondo are if you want to have a great time in a friendly social atmosphere, without breaking too much of a sweat, and without learning much that will actually help you in a real fight.
BJJ and Judo are %26#039;real%26#039; styles in that while tyhey also have freindly atmospheres you will lose sweat and tears, since they spar full strength.
In other words you will learn to use them very effectively over the average thug on the street.
As people will say the downside to grappling sports is they are not much good against multiple guys or two guys with knives bla bla bla etc.
But having fought on the street for years I can say no martial art is good preparation for that anyway.The key is stay out of that sort of trouble 99% of the time, the other 1% see it when it is coming, hit or barge over the first guy like a demolition ball and run like hell.
Gauranteed by 99% of still living street fighters ;)|||if i had the chance to do what ever i wanted id do
judo, karate
or
judo, jujitsu|||I studied hapkido, so I can give you information on TKD and aikido = worthless.
TKD is a sport, it depends to much on kicks, good effective kicks need you to be at least blue belt, they are hard to perform, easy to be unable to do if you don%26#039;t stretch, and to much show. Kickboxing kicks are more effective less show and quicker to learn.
aikido lacks realism in training = it depends so much on your agressor%26#039;s action, is the kind of MA that needs to be perfected in order to work, its training lacks realism. It has so many moves to memorize and it doesn%26#039;t focus on only the effective moves.
Judo = really good, people say its a sport, but the fact that you compete is an awesome tool, if you can throw a judoka you can throw ANYONE, knowing how to control a grappling situation is something most people can%26#039;t do, if you can, then the win is yours.
Weak points = no good defenses against punches, most judokas however will quickly go for a grabbing situation and end up without harm received.
I have found that punch defenses are the easiest things to learn and perform, to the point you can do so by watching a video and no need to join a MA to learn them, so you are still ok with JUDO.
BJJ = N.1 for 1v1 situation, sux for multiple oponents, however the 1v1 situations gives you incredible value, they teach you to stop fearing, you can grab a huge opponent and beat him.
I am going for JUDO since it covers more and its a better base, then I%26#039;ll go for BJJ. They both do not rely on strenght, which is a really good thing.|||tae kwon doe rules,u guys just suck!!! I agree that tae kwon doe now a days is bad but most schools these days are world federation tae kwon doe, which gives ppl with real tae kwon doe skills a bad name.u just have 2 find the right school. This has no relativity 2 ur question i just take tae kwon doe,and they train me hard,it comes in handy for street fights they teach u alot of self defense techniques,but it does mainly involve kicking, but think of it this way wat will do more damage a kick or punch???|||Who says you have to choose?? IF you care to look up some history, you%26#039;ll notice that Aikido, Ju-Jitsu, and Judo all share common backgrounds that split as schools of thought and technique focused on different approaches. However, a practitioner who pays attention will notice some blending of styles and use knowledge of one art to bolster the breadth and depth of technique in another. I happen to luck upon a great teacher and his teacher who are extremely immersed in their art(s). Finding a good place to study with no Bull-shido is the hard part of all styles.|||try do all the arts mainly aikido and brazillian jujitsu and the basics on karate with those arts you can be an ultimate fighter because you can be good on the ground and on your feet trust me im a national champ in my country and these things also happen to me a lot . if you cant decide what art you want to choose go to this great site called expertvillage.com which teaches you anything you can think of . aikido should be the best since its combines both striking and grappling|||I agree with fastfist and sixtus, but I think they give aikido too much credit. I don%26#039;t think it looks that pretty. Then again, if you listen to the aikido cult following, you can beat up 15 people while curing cancer.|||I would say...a mix of taekwondo with judo. I take taekwondo and Taekwondo is very good for developing very quick and powerful kicks. Judo is for grappling.
