What would be some good martial arts for my body type?
I am 6′ 3″, 250 lbs, and I’m not very athletic. I am 16 and thinking of different types of Martial arts to take. I don’t want to focus on ways to harm people as much as just learning a style. However I still want my size to be an advantage in the style I choose. So I ask, in your opinion what would be the best styles for me based on this description?
This is a tough one.
Do you like wrestling? Go for Brazilian jujitzu or judo.
Do you want to do a lot of kicks? Go for taekwondo or tang soo do.
Do you want to do a lot of kicking and punching? Go for muay thai, kick boxing or the japanese okinawan karate systems.
Do you want to learn a lot of basic self defense techniques a long with some kicking and punching? Go for karate or hapkido.
Do you want to learn to use some weapons? Go for escrima, or one of the japanese arts that emphasized weapons.
Do you want to be in tune with your body and learn about motion and how to use your opponents motion for your benefit? Go for Aikido or maybe tai chi.
If I were you, I’d sit on some classes in all of the styles I mentioned above. Don’t let your self be locked in to a commitment to early. Take the time to see about 10 or so schools. Then make your decision after careful consideration.
