    I used to take traditional Okinawan Karate for a couple years and then stopped. Did anyone else have their parents get ripped off for your martial arts lessons? :D

    Ive done loads of martial arts.

    I started shotokan karate, then to tae kwon do i did ITF an WTF styles, ju jitsu, BJJ, a few kung fu styles then boxing, muay thai. Ive done a few others for smaller periods that i dont mention.

    For effectiveness of stand up arts cant beat muay thai and for floor BJJ.
