I'm thinking of starting martial arts and was wondering if someone could provide suggestions for my situation. I'm a tall and thin teenager, in good physical condition and quite motivated. For now, the most time I could dedicate to it would be two nights of practice a week with some time spent at home. I'm pretty sure I would either like to study a stand-up or ground fighting style. I wouldn't like it to be too high impact, although I would like some form of contact to be involved. My goals with this are increased fitness, self-discipline and self-defense skills. Ideally, I would like an asian martial-art, for some reason this appeals to me. Finally, nothing too obscure, as I may not be able to find a school for it. All answers appreciated, please back up your responses to some degree.
