Is anyone here a fan of MMA or a specific Martial Art? I did taekwondo for a while but this school semesters schedule forced me to take a break. I'm probably going to start training in MMA or BJJ during the summer.

Anyone else? =)

Yeah, been training in ground work for the last few years (albeit with a bit of a break) and started developing the stand up and take downs for it. Have been doing kickboxing for 4 or 5 years.

MMA isn't for everyone though and make sure you pick a good school suitable to your level. But as you've done martial arts before you should know what to expect.

Yeah I've been a big MMA/Martial Arts enthusiast for a while. Many of my friends and future in-laws have trained and still do train. I think Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the way.

Kick boxing and muai Thai boxing are cool.

Krav Magra I think is the best martial art but seince hardly anyone teaches it in the US and they can't teach most of it legally I don't think I'll be taking it. I'm going to sign up for BJJ and Mao Tae (spelling) just because in the UFC and with most MMA fights BJJ is the dominant martial art. Then Mao Tae has really good kicks and teaches pressure points alot so I think it it would be a good mix. Any thoughts... By the way I'm 16 almost 17 just starting.
