Is karate a good martial art for me to start studying?
September 14th, 2010 | 
Author: I was thinking of taking boxing or kick boxing, but my mom showed me a karate school within walking distance from home and I’m considering beginning study. I am very fit and athletic, but have never done any self defense training. I’m looking for something that will help in self defense. Is karate the way to go? I asume it is more than just patterns and stretching and is there some serious strikes and training?

for serious self defense in this day and age you need to study how do defend from weapons.
but just school yard abuse training it would be fine.
