gauol

I'm looking to learn a martial art, Jujitsu and/or Judo both appeal to me. However I was wondering how useful these styles are in the real world? My intention is not to be starting anything, I simply wish the confidence that I could defend myself if needed.

I had originally wanted to go with Krav Maga but there are very few gyms in NH and are too far away. I also liked the philosophy of Akido but again no gyms nearby.

I welcome any suggestions and input.

Many thanks
