If you are interested in self-defence and are considering learning a martial art, you are facing an important decision.
Choosing the right martial art depends not only on its effectiveness in self-defence situations but also on personal preference, physical fitness, and values and philosophy that appeal to you. In addition to Aikido as a sport there are many other disciplines such as kickboxing, judo, karate, taekwondo, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, each with unique features and benefits.
Making a choice can be overwhelming due to the multitude of options. Each martial art has its own charm and offers different approaches to self-defence and physical fitness. For example, Aikido emphasises using the attacker's strength against himself, while kickboxing focuses on punches and kicks. Judo, in turn, focuses on throws and ground techniques, and karate focuses on precision in punching and kicking techniques.
To help you on this important choice, we have a interactive tool developed. This simple, yet effective self-test is designed to give insight into which martial art best suits your personality, physical abilities, and personal goals. By answering a series of questions, you will get a better idea of which discipline suits you best.
