    I used to do Muay Thai (kickboxing) some years back, now I mostly stick to boxing. Thinking of perhaps pursuing kickboxing or boxing for comps once I've dropped some more of this weight.

    I quite like the look of jiu-jitsu or kenpo though... maybe if I can find something nearby I might give them a go. Or the Mixed Martial Arts options they have at some gyms now... it's all pretty awesome!

    I currently train Tang Soo Do (orange advanced belt) and I do Brazillian Jiu Jitsu (2 stripe white belt). If you can find somewhere that teaches BJJ I suggest go for it. I know there are different branches and teachings, I'm not sure if they differ or how. We are a 3rd Generation Gracie school. I can tell you it is one of the best things I have ever done. I have a hate/love relationship with it because it is so goddamn hard, but I love a good challenge

    Bumping up this thread rather than starting a new one. I do taekwondo and I love it! I did 3 hours last week as well as my first sparring training. About to go practice my pattern so that I look half decent at training tonight.

    Working in an office where there is such emphasis on health and safety, it is great to go and do something physical.

    Feel free to add me martial arts lovers!

    Have been a practicing Judoka for the last 15 years and recently started adding Aikido in the mix. Love it and get cranky when I miss training.

    Catch wrestling here. Think "American BJJ" if you're not familiar with it.

    I'm currently a green belt in WTF Tae Kwon Do, and have been taking it for almost 9 months now. My school also teaches Combat Hapkido, and i hope someday to be able to cross-train in both.

    Aikido here. Started 30-years ago and have practiced steadily around 24 of those. Trying to do more but a hip injury pulled me off the mat. Have been back for about two months now but not as often as I would like.

    I was a yellow belter in taekwondo way back when I was in high school.

    Last year I was into Aikido, I actually loved it but unfortunately I have to stop training coz of financial reasons but hopefully I can get back at it when everything is OK.
