To get to the point I am a very powerfull striker, quick short (5'10) and I am into weight trainning alot. There are two ATA schools in my area, one is family owned so I can take lessons for free and the other is not. Now the free one has of course Tae-kwando (SP?) kickboxing and judo. The non free one has Jue Jitsue (SP?) and Judo and some others I dont' care about. Now, considering what my body is like I think judo or some type of ground system would work best. Since I am very powerful I think kickboxing would be fun. I like the fact of contact but thats about it. Judo I like because of arm bars and ground game. I am wondering about Juditsu because from watching the UFC fighters that know JJ, I'd like to learn holds, arm bars and things of that sort. But to me, which I don't know much about either one, Judo is JJ is almost the same? What is the difference?

1. COnsiderint I like contact what abotu kickboxing
2. WOuld judo or JJ be better?
