Out of all the arts I studied? Tang Soo Do was my fav. Well, not just the style, but the dojang itself. It was mixed with Jujitsu, a little Hapkido, and Thai boxing. I thought that was the perfect mix. There was a little of everything (grappling, kicks, boxing, self defense, forms, tradition, and non-tradition). It was "supposed" to be point sparring, but my instructor allowed take-downs, throws, and submitions. We had a blast on sparring nights :D Of course, if we did a tourny, we went by the rules ;)
 
jujitsu. I've done two styles and my current, ishin ryu is my favourite.
It's fast, simple, and great fun. It's been fantastic for my confidence and fitness too, and it's where I met the man I intend to marry...so I may be biased.
 
well i think of it as more of a concept then a style, but JKD (jeet kune do)because you use what works best for you and it teaches a mix of martial arts and a mix of different techniques you can put into your training, everything from jun fan gung fu, wing chun and JJ, takedowns and trapping to wrestling and grappling. i strongly suggest if you are interested in martial arts to at least check it out JKD just might be for you.
 
I love the forms of Tae Kwon Do, however hapkido is my favorite art I have ever practiced.
 
Study shorin and goju but dabbled in jujutsu just a little and I like it. Fast and to the point. "trap, twist snap smash", and off the assailant goes to the orthopedic surgeon.
 
Favorite Art is finger painting, I just love having all that paint all over my hands.

TKD rules old school
 
My favorite now is Kung Fu San Soo - it has elements of arts I have studied previously (striking, kicks, knees/elbows, joint locks and takedowns) but combined with simple yet effective footwork that was not in the "hybrid" mix or Aikido that I studied before. I also like because the instructor pushes us to be creative by combining movements in interesting ways.
 
I love jujitsu. The concepts are just fascinating. The uprooting, grounding, taking the center, all of it. And as I progress, the simplicity of the advanced and the complexity of the simple keeps me coming back for more.

Other than that, I'm becoming more and more interested in Tai Chi. Once I'm back on my feet I'll hopefully be starting that up as well. As long as the guy stays in the area at least.

I like the art I am learning now because of the instructor and the people I train with. However, I always wanted to learn Tai Chi. The movements are beautiful.
 
Does BJJ count? LOL...I have always wanted to learn/study Tai Chi as well. It really is a beautiful art (in my opinion).

I have always been attracted to ninjitsu, but its hard to find a legit school. There are way too many mcdojo/80's ninja wannabee's out there.
