if i had to choose between aikido or bjj, i'd go for bjj. It is a nice addition to your boxing, and adds more flexibility in technique & execution

Reason>violence
More reason>violence
Even more reasoning>violence

But some people just need every square inch of their ass kicked (yes I quoted Willow). That's when it's time for the art of "go ape shit"!

Krav Maga is technically the art of ape shit. I was hospitalized twice during my course. And yes, it's the IDF's self defense art. Kill or cripple as soon as possible, no holds barred. I know how to bite out an eyeball now...

Kenjutsu is taught by only a very few, and I was lucky enough to have class with one of them (my psychology teacher, as a matter of fact...)

"In Japanese, usually when referring to martial arts, one will often notice the suffixes 'do' and 'jutsu', as in kendo or kenjutsu, iaido or iaijutsu, etc. This is confusing to some, and many use them interchangeably. This is incorrect.

The suffix 'jutsu' translates roughly to 'skill' or 'technique.' Thus:
- Ken (sword) jutsu (skill) = kenjutsu (swordsmanship, swordfighting)
- iai (the act of drawing a sword) jutsu = iaijutsu (sword-drawing technique)

The suffix 'do' is borrowed from the chinese 'tao' and translates roughly to 'path' or 'way.' Thus:
- Ken (sword) do (way) = kendo (way of the sword).
What it reflects is an attempt to capture the basics of a skill or activity while leaving some of it out. "
