Okay, I am doing a report, obviously, on Martial Arts. I am writing a 5 paragraph essay and need to know 3 different types dealing with different topics. I need to know a martial ars MAINLY dealing with:
Strength
Pressure Points
Quickness
Please try to make them common, not something that you would need to fly around the world to learn.
Edit: I know, each art has a to do with the 3 catergories but i am looking for !*MAIN*! ones.

Just about any Martial Arts you can find a school for here in the US covers what you want but my personal preferences for you to check out would by Taekwon-Do (ITF), Ninjutsu (There are legitimate schools here in the US) These you just have to ask for credentials from IBDA for the US side or Dr. Masaakai Hatsumi from Japan (34th Generation Master Togakure Ryu)
and last but not least Goju Ryu Karate.
Hope this is what you manted or that is at least helps.

When you study the Classical Arts of Okinawa, you get all of the above.
Learning under a knowledgeable instructor means that you will be able to use your art without exerting a lot of strength. Proper instruction teaches you the mechanics of the art and this overcomes strength.

For strength Wrestling.
For pressure points Wing Chun dim mak
For quickness

You can find descriptions of these on the net for your school report.

Tiger style kung fu
Uses strength training to make the fingers very strong
Uses that strength to manipulate tendons,muscles,joints,and pressure points
And its agressivness turns into speed
Or you can extensivley study "Chin Na"
