Jujitsu? Ju-Jitsu (JU - gentle/soft; JITSU - art), a Japanese System of Martial Arts in which the strength and weight of an opponent are used against him by means of anatomical knowledge and principle of leverage. Included in this soft or gentle art are methods (fists, fingers, elbows, feet etc.), throwing, constrictions (pins and chokes), joint locking and weaponry.

Most martial arts will deal with such things at some level, thus it does not become a matter of someone else's abstract opinion on which best suits that desire, but it is much more a case of which arts are readily available to you in your location and which instructor or school do you feel most comfortable training with.

Unless you are already an experienced martial artist (and I presume you are not or you would already have a good idea of which art to select and would not need advice on such a forum as this) the decision based on the name of the art or what someone else tells you about the art is the wrong way to look at things in my opinion.

You will spend a considerable amount of money, time, sweat, and attention on your chosed dsicipline, therefore it must be something you really enjoy doing and it must be with a group of people you look forward to seeing two or four times every week for the next ten years or so. There is little point in going to an overpriced, hard to get to school where you don't like the rest of the students, just because it's the discipline someone told you to study.

Check out the schools in your area. Talk with the instructor/s and tell them your interests. Watch a few classes that you would be participating in and chat with the students. Your decision should then become quickly apparent. If you are really lucky, you may have the joyous challenge of choosing between two or three schools you really like.

Good luck to you

Actually you don't need martial arts that really teaches you about pressure points. In most martial arts, the instructor will teach you techniques that apply pressure points, but then in all martial arts, the theory is far less important than the application so then they don't teach you much about the theory of pressure points. However, if you want to learn more about pressure points, you can search them on the internet or buy a martial arts book about pressure points.

What do you mean by attacks? Is it strikes (punches, kicks, elbow and knee strike) or grapple? Anyway both are strong if you've mastered it. Striking martial arts is not better than grappling and vice versa, it is very good if you can combine both. Also you said you want your attack to be strong, perhaps in some martial arts, strength are not that emphasized, but then you can do weightlifting and push ups, that will make your arms strong and strong arms means strong punches. So basically you don't need to find the superior martial arts (there isn't one anyways), as long as you are comfortable with the teachings and the instructor is good then you can go along pretty well with any martial arts. I would recommend visiting the nearest dojos to your home and find try them, usually a good instructor allows a trial period and doesn't force you to join in. Also be aware of bullshido (fake martial arts), If you encounter a bullshido, usually the instructor will tell you that the martial arts he does is the best and superior,can kill an adult with one strike, and so many lies just to amke you join in.....

All martial arts have what you are looking for.

The problem is not many teachers have this knowledge.

They teach kick/punch because it is all they learned and they never sought to look for more.

Try to find any branch of Taika Oyata's Karate or Shinjinbukan, or find a Dragon Society affiliate.

Look into Hapkido. A very well rounded martial art. That has all that you asked about and much more. I've trained in it for 10 yrs and I use it law enforcement. So I know from REAL experience that it works!

Jujitsu, Aikido or Kempo are going to be your best bet. I like Krav Maga and Brazilian Jujitsu. Krav Maga teaches a lot of defending an armed attack so if you want unarmed I would go with one of the first three.

If by pressure points you mean a one touch knockout, that doesn't really exist. If you mean hitting nerve clusters and vital points to induce more pain, try one of these styles.
Kajukenbo
CHA 3 kenpo
Kosho ryu kenpo
Shorin ryu
Mantis - kung fu
Choy lay fut - kung fu
Tai chi ( at full speed tai chi is effective )
