Question

What do you think is best and why? karate-judo-takewondo?

Answer 1

for me its karate...i dont like the aspect of kicks as a primary weapon....and i think being thrown will hurt way too much lol but all of them could teach great things

Answer 2

Depends what your aim is for.

Taekwondo in the US is a bit-bastardized, but the easiest to learn. Strong in Balance and Kicking, but NOT much else. If you could be taught by someone not of US origin, You'd be some Hardcore, since Out of Country Taekwondo is Extreme kick boxing, sometimes up to par with Muay Thai if taught correctly.

Karate is very balanced. A bit more...rigid in terms of martial arts in movements, but it has ALL the principles of fighting you could ever look for. Striking, Kicking, Counters, Grappling, even some submissions. The Jack of Trades.

Judo? Throws, Grapple, Counters. some striking. You're focusing on taking the other guy off balance, and using their own weight and momentum against them, much like Aikido, except more offensive.

What sounds good to you?

Answer 3

Depends on the person.

If you like throwing people around, grappling, and wrestling....then Judo is the best.

If you like kicking, Takewondo is the best.

If you like a more balanced routine, karate is definitely the best. punching, kicking, and take downs all in one. :)
