I'd like to get some basic training for self-defense. I'm not sure which type of martial arts would be best for me, so perhaps others could provide a recomendation based on the following: I'm a family man (so I don't have as much free time as I did when I was younger to put into training, etc.); I'm in my mid 30's (so I'm not as athletic as I was when I was younger); I'm in reasonable shape (not overweight, I like to run, and occasionally lift weights); and I'm not looking to kick someone's butt, but just defend myself if I can't avoid a hostile situtation.
I'd prefer to avoid the wrestling on the ground types of martial arts. And I'm probably not the strongest guy in town, so I don't want to have to rely on strength either.
Thanks!
