Witch Martial Art would you suggest?

I’ve been doing martial arts for 2 years (almost 3) but 3 weeks ago stopped bc I realised that wasn’t really the art for me (I’m not gonna mention the art ny name, bc I still think it’s the best martial art out there, so I don’t wanna discourage anyone to try it). But I’m starting to miss all the physical contact, so I was wondering witch art I should try out next? I’ve though about muay thai or capoeira, but I dunno. Any suggestions? And give my a bit of info about the art you suggest, thanks!

Witch Martial Art would you suggest?
Krav Maga





Krav Maga (Hebrew קרב מגע: "contact combat") is an eclectic self-defense and military hand-to-hand combat system developed in Israel, which assumes no quarter, and emphasizes maximum threat neutralization in a "real life" context.[citation needed] It came to prominence following its adoption by various Israeli Security Forces.[citation needed]





In Krav Maga, there are no hard-and-fast rules, and no distinction in training for men and women. It is not a sport, and there are no specific uniforms, attire or competitions. All the techniques focus on maximum efficiency in real-life conditions. Krav Maga generally assumes a no quarter situation; the attacks and defenses are intended for potentially lethal threat situations, and aim to neutralize these and escape via maximum pain or damage to opponents, as rapidly and safely as possible. Crippling attacks to vulnerable body parts, including groin and eye strikes, headbutts, and other efficient and potentially brutal attacks, improvized use of any objects available, and maximizing personal safety in a fight, are emphasized.
Reply:Well makes it kinda makes it hard to suggest something without knowing what you trained in the first place. If you trained in a grappling art ,then try a striking art, and vice versa. Or maybe try a more internal style like Aikido or something more reality based Hapkido or Krav maga. Martial arts training should be a quest for knowlege regardless of style. There are so many different arts to try. I suggest researching and visiting other schools and try a class to see if you like what it offers. I train in Hapkido for 10 yrs which I love for its completeness. But I've also thought about trying Judo because it specializes in throwing techniques which I think would expand my knowlege and add a different approach to what I've alreayd learned to this point.
Reply:karate is fun
Reply:I took Taekwondo for 3 years. If I decided to take another martial art, I'd want to learn a Chinese Kung Fu style.
Reply:There are many styles of martial arts. It's better to train in your mind the balance of your movement compared to rhythmic motions learned from or just a simple move done many times before.





hat can leave you helpless and not ready for what happens next in combat.





One must be diversify with his fists mush less his arms and waist,hips and legs./





Freedom of movement and anticipation from ones senses is much more valuable in a fight rather than contemplating your next move.





Your moves should come automatically ...it should hit all by itself.
Reply:It is very common to start out in one style then after a few years realize it isn't for you and transfer to another style. This will actually make you a better martial artist as long as you don't switch too frequently. It takes a long time to become good at any single style of martial art so you want to devote a solid block of time to one style before switching.





I started out in Kodokan Judo, Goju-Ryu Karate, and Hakko-Ryu Jiu Jitsu in 1968, and after about five years I de-emphasized the Karate and poured my entire life into Judo %26amp; Jiu-jitsu; yet those karate years are invaluable to me.
Reply:I would go for a martial art completely different than the one you tried. For instance, if it was a Japanese art, try a Chinese Kung Fu, or a Thai art, or even a European one (Fencing, Sambo, Savate, Boxing) ... If it was a grappling style, try a striking style. (Karate, Boxing, Taekwondo, Wing Chun) If it was a striking style, try a grappling style. (Jujitsu, Judo, Wrestling, etc)
Reply:As long as they spar hard. No point sparring
