>>35355 I dont know anything about your area, but Aikido has been my staple since I was 10 (now 24), and while its done nothing for my fitness (I rely on cardio for that), it has literally saved my life once, and aided me in winning six unscheduled fights, and numerous kumite.
BJJ is truly a vicious art, and brutally effective. The two main cons to this art, is that 1) There is no true range. The most effective skills for a BJJ artist is their grapplings and incapacitation moves, which rely on getting right next to the opponent. If they're unarmed, this is all well and good. If not...
Also, BJJ is, by nature, a violent art. I know, all martial arts are violent to a degree, hence the word martial, but a style like Aikido is all about removing the threat. BJJ means you want them to pay for their audacity.
Krav Maga is also a mighty vicious sport, and since it requires highly aggressive moves, Aikido would be my recommendation to balance out your repitoire. Avoid the fight with Aikido, win the fight with Krav.
Finally, your instructor is most important. You could have an unbeatable style, but if your teacher is shit, so too will your technique.
Hope I helped.
