I'm very biased....
but then again... times are different now. taekwondo in the philipines has become a cookie cutter martial art.
it all depends on your purpose
lose weight = boxing, taebo, kickboxing
self defense = krav maga, aikido, arnis (not a fan of jujitsu... especially brazilian... it's only good in one on one "duel to the finish" combat... not applicable in multiple opponents, armed opponents, and battle in enclosed spaces... in short... not applicable in the Phlippine setting)
for the sake of learning techniques = classical arts karate, taekwondo, judo
get to know other people = capoiera (this is where the hot chicks are "in" siya kasi eh)
to grope chicks = judo, aikido, wrestling
(capoiera does not offer that much chances to cop a feel)
enjoyment = tekken 6
furthermore. it's not the art... it's the person...
examples taekwondo vs muay thai
