Q: I'm looking to start training in some sort of martial arts program. I would like to learn one of the best forms of martial arts/mixed Martial used for hand on hand combat and defense again weapons.
A: Wing Chun is an excellent option. Another good option could be Hapkido. It combines striking techniques similar to Tae Kwon Do and throws, chokes and grappling similar to Judo, Jujitsu and Aikido for an extremely effective self defense style. Weapons training and defense is drilled regularly.

I practice MMA and know alot about the sport. I'm sure I could do alot better job than some of those guys I see reffing fights.
