Question

Answer 1

For self defense Ju Jitso is probably the best martial art.

Its principles are to use your opponent's weight and movement against him.

Kick boxing and karate require you to have strength, so when you are attacked by a much larger person you have a big problem.

Nerve holds and throws in Ju Jitso allow a much smaller person to disable a large person.

The best thing to know in a bar fight is to not fight.

Unless someone is preventing you from leaving, walk out the door, what people think or say is not important when the other guy might have a gun or several friends.

Answer 3

as far as self defense goes- ju jitsu is probably better for you than Muay Thai Kick Boxing.

However- Muay Thai is much more agressive than Ju Jitsu.  There have been a very high number of K1 fighters who have gone the Muay Thai route- only to return to K1.  MT is much more physically demanding and Ju Jitsu is much more deisciplined.  depends on what you are after.  

In your case- Ju Jitsu as it sounds as if you could use a bit of self control.
