Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I really don't like this style. Most people believe BJJ + Muay Thai = instant win. BJJ practioners belittle other MA's, fail to see their purposes and good aspects, and go around trying to prove how they superior. The Gracie family did this to just about all martial arts, and while yes they did come out victorious most times, I don't think you can judge a style based on a few spars with one or two guys from said style. BJJ practitioners have a very cocky and arrogant attitude, as well as belittling others and seeming to have respect or discipline. I find this very disturbing in a martial art, and have to suggest you steer clear from it.
My personal reccomendations are anything karate, judo, jiu-jitsu, muay thai, ninjitsu, kung-fu, bajiquan, American Boxing, and Tung Soo Do. When looking for a decent school, the more traditional the better and the more guranteed you are a good teacher. But if you have limited options...watch some classes. Take note at how the instructor deals with students. If he is careful and tries to lead them correctly and show them what to do, if he is able to do this without confusing the students. Or see if he ignores the ones that don't do it right. If you see problems here then just walk out, its not worth your time. If you see the things I said to look for being good, then go for it.
