My belief is this. When the zombie apocalypse happens it will be useful to know some kind of hand-to-hand combat for self-defense.
Kickboxing and boxing is easy to learn and no excuse for not knowing some of the basic fundamentals.
I know Steven Seagal is big on Aikido but it is useless during a rampage (based purely on defense). Kung Fu is too slow and formal in these conditions as well IMO. Tae Kwon Do is also beautiful to watch but, again, a tad inefficient in a melee situation.
Jiu-Jitsu is great: grappling, striking, eye gouging, choke holds, biting, joint locks.
Just started Krav Maga, which is what the Israelis learn. Combines a lot of different things and emphasizes attacking vulnerable body parts: eyes, throat, groin. So far lots of fun.
