Aikido Good Self Defense
Is there any martial arts that strike, but are also good for self defense?
I want to learn something that has power strikes, but can also be used in self defense, if such a thing exists.
I wanted to do krav maga, but there are no good schools near my house. I also don't want to do arts lie aikido, because they seem to defensive, and have no strikes which I need in a martial art.
Can you suggest any good martial arts that fit the above terms?
I could also keep looking for a krav maga school, but doubt i'll find one
Like i liked hapkido, but it seems there is absolutely no striking in it, just defending techniques
Well i was going to suggest Krav Maga. If you can afford to learn more than one martial art. Brazillian Jui jitsu combined with a striking art such as muay thai, kickboxing, or even regular boxing will set you in good stead for defending youself, as long as your getting plenty of sparring opportunities as well as training under stress, so you dont freeze up. Problem is there is no weapon defenses apart from the most advanced BJJ.
Alternatively you could try find a MMA class, they are very popular these days and have some good foundations for self defence, as well as being the most effective ring style.
