I did a serious amount of wtf tkd and goju karate when I was younger. the tkd worked the legs and goju is a real strong karate so got the upper body striking sorted. I also did a bit a wado which added some lateral movement and rotational stuff. started in aikido which I liked as it is a well-rounded art - weapons (bo staff for me) legs, arms, and a fair bit of judo, deflection of force type stuff. similar to hapkido in a way (which I also did a bit of) but with more history behind it.
went to some competitions which I did meh at. unless you consider surviving a victory ...
