    Jiu Jitsu, a rather traditional method. I’ve practiced lots of things over the last 3 decades, and have now landed on this because there’s a lot of good people practicing it.

    What I like:

    • it has a bit of everything
    • judo throws are fun

    What I don’t like:

    • wrestling / grappling, never liked or been good at that
    • kicks are pretty practical, no fancy acrobatic stuff
    • no traditional weapon (staff, sword, nunchaku, etc) techniques

    I suck at martial arts, but I’ve done it for so long that I’m sometimes able to fool people into thinking I’m not bad.
