Re: Which Martial Art for Kids - Aikido / Taekwondo / Karate / Judo ...

I'll throw in with Judo as well for the aforementioned reasons ( kids wrestle, good conditioning, self confidence) My 2¢ to add is with schools zero tolerance policy for fighting, if a kid needs to defend themselves, ( which regardless of policy, I think we should teach our children) little regard is given to who started it, just who did what to whom. It's much easier to defend "He fell down" or "I held him down" rather than I struck him. It looks less like a fight.
