sounds like you're into it mostly for self defense and not personal enjoyment so just try an mma class breh, i'm sure there's some aspect of it you'll end up liking so you could switch to that later. muay thai/bjj/boxing/wrestling/judo/sambo are all legit, if your gym does full contact sparring and doesn't have too much bullshido you can't really go wrong with any of those.

just for ensuring you and yours' security tho, awareness/de-escalating the situation/the 40 yard dash/concealed carrying are all way better options imo and that's coming from a lifelong martial artist :yeshrug:

I just started muay thai and bjj this week and already feel like I can really do someone bad in a fight. I can't wait until I'm 3 months in.:blessed:

Highly recommend it breh. The classes are tough but it's fun as hell

Muay Thai. I’ve actually been wanting to get into it, seems like something you’d get super fit doing plus them Thai dudes are actually pretty chill
Highly recommend. It’s fun as hell…very painful though. As you get physically conditioned, you’ll see that your mind has to come along too


Added benefit if you learning from the real azns you got the chance @ some good food here n there
