Also which martial art teaches you self defense like dislocating, locking, grappling pressure points and throwing and knocking down your opponents. Please list all the martial arts that does that

What type of martial arts is right for me???
Muy Thai: Most ruthless streetfighting ever.
Reply:the best martial art for any street fight is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu but you need to pick up a little boxing and wrestling to be a great fighter. So with that said the best way to train is to focus on MMA (mixed martial arts) not just 1 art .


there a schools like mine that train in more than 1 art at once.


we train in 4 forms of mma Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, boxing, wrestling, and judo.





as far as a list here is the best arts to go with:


BoxingThe skill or sport of fighting with the fists usually with padded leather gloves. Referred to as the "sweet science," boxers use elaborate foot maneuvers and quick jabs for offense.





Brazilian Jiu-JitsuIn the mid-1920's, Carlos Gracie opened the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. He taught the skills he learned from Japanese Judo master Esai Maeda. The skills were later modified to use less strength and to be more effective against larger opponents. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu's reputation spread due to the success of its practitioners in no holds barred contests.





Freestyle WrestlingPossibly the world's oldest sport. Contestants struggle hand to hand attempting to throw or take down their opponent without striking blows. Some of the many styles of wrestling are Freestyle, Greco-Roman, and catch as catch can.





Greco-Roman WrestlingPossibly the worlds oldest sport. Contestants struggle hand to hand attempting to throw or take down their opponent without striking blows. Some of the many styles of wrestling are Freestyle, Greco-Roman, and catch as catch can.





Jiu JutsuAncient Japanese martial art that encompasses throwing, joint locks, striking, and weapons training.





JudoSportive Japanese martial art founded in 1882 by Jigoro Kano. Derived from Jujutsu, Judo is now an Olympic sport that emphasizes throws. Striking is not allowed in competition Judo.





KarateName used to identify many Japanese and Okinawan martial arts. While known for powerful, linear techniques, many Karate styles also incorporate softer, circular techniques. Some of the popular styles of Karate are Kyokushinkai, Shotokan, Goju-Ryu, Shorin-Ryu, and Kenpo which was the first "Americanized" version of Karate.





KickboxingSportive martial art combining boxing punches and martial arts kicks. Many different styles with different rules exist such as Muay Thai, Full Contact Karate, and Asian Rules Fighting.

Reply:Sounds like you may enjoy American Kenpo. Consists of hundreds of counters for any type f attack you may face, and employs punches, elbows, a few knees, kicks, throws and takedowns, and elementary groundfighting, as well as some joint-locks and a couple of chokes, and even includes a bit of weapons and weapons defense work, which should only be attempted if you absolutely feel it's necessary.





American Kenpo, meaning "American Fist Law" is often called "The Ultimate in Self-Defense" and was in fact developed specifically for 'street self-defense.'The only downside to Kenpo, and other standup arts like karate, Tae Kwon Do, Kickboxing, Boxing, and even Muay Thai, is that they don't really have a grappling or ground game, meaning if you are taken down in a fight by a grappler, bigger or stronger opponent, you will most likely (99.9% of the time) lose. To remedy this, take up Kenpo if you like, and cross-train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or Japanese Jujutsu, and you will be a complete martial artist.
Reply:A lot of martial arts styles that emphasize combat tend to do these things, to one degree or another.


Off hand, some of these might be: Krav Maga, Silat, Pankration, Kajukenbo, Aiki-Jujitsu, Baguazhang, Xingyiquan, or any style that features Shuai Jiao.
Reply:I'd add Ninpo and encourage you to try a few classes in different arts to be sure before you decide, the credentials of the instructor and how they run the school is very important. We spend time each class with spontaneous attacking to ensure we can use our training if needed on the street. Good luck!
