Their are several. One in particular is Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, as shown by its effectiveness in real life combat and the MMA world. Certain striking arts, such as boxing/kickboxing- Muay Thai are also common combat skills trained throughout the miltary. Ther are probably others, nothing specifically as it's best to be well rounded. I'd imagine other arts that specialize in pressure points and specific fatal technique- crav?

The answer to this question depends on what you are looking for from either of these martial arts. Both of these martial arts have been used mostly for sport. If you are looking for sport, then either of the martial arts are good and it depends on whether you want to grapple or strike. It's like comparing apples to oranges really. If you are looking for self defense, then I would say train in both of them. If you can become proficient in Judo and Kickboxing, I think you will be more than capable of holding your own on the street. If you have to choose one over the other, I think you should go with the one you feel the most comfortable with. If you come from a boxing type background, try kickboxing. If you come from a wrestling type of background, go with Judo. They are both effective when placed in their proper context. I'm not sure if this helps but that's my opinion on the matter.

The best form of combat is Ju Box Fu it is a combination of Brazilian Jujitsu,Muay Thai kickboxing and kungFu if you have time to include wrestling you cant be beaten. \nIf someone is bigger and stronger you can take them to the ground and use your Jujitsu witch is very easy to learn and very effective. If your opponent is smaller and faster you can use you size and strength and strike them Kungfu is very unorthodox with back fists and kicking techniques they are hard to defend however it takes a long time to learn this style so start with kickboxing witch has a lot of basic power attacks.\nJujitsu is the best form for a 1 on 1 street fight but if you are faced with more than 1 opponent you will need to know your striking.\nIf you only have time to practise and learn 1 style i recommend Jujitsu if you study it for one year you can easily beat a 15 year Martial Artist from any of the classical styles (Karate,Boxing,KungFu,Judo or wrestling) witch are useless unless you both now the same style.\nIt is also very hard to find a Ju Box Fu school as it is a relatively new style so good luck.

I am a Correctional Officer for a state prison. Most situations I encounter involve close fighting.\n\nThere are two styles that fit my needs best. \n\nWing Chun. It's perfect for fighting close to your opponent. Moves are direct and to the point. It's perfect for fighting multiple opponents. (It lacks ground fighting techniques and submissions)\n\nAikido. This is best suited for my line of work, although it's rather weak on striking and kicking.\n\nThe two combined are perfect for me.

I have been training in Judo for over 13 years. I competed in wrestling in highschool and usually won easily. Because of my Judo it made it very easy to naturaly to move around the matt and leverage my opponants. The wrestling also held my competitioin Judo giving me new ways to take guys down. \nBoth can compiment each other well. Just remember though in Wrestling you can't do most of the Judo throws or submissions so becarefull not to get disqualified.

Hello Eric, you answered my "moon question". I am on "the fence" with that. But to answer your question, I took Judo at 26 and am acelling fast. I was afraid at first, but if you are 1/2 tough, you will not have a problem. Most people are wimps and easy to beat. I wish to be a black belt soon, you can be too. Just listen to your master even if you do not agree, he knows more than you, so have faith in your master. P.S. My name is Eric aslo:P Good luck with your training, it is not as scary as you may think.

Without giving you a twenty-page answer, my best advice is to practice often and to learn to link your subs...\n\nPracticing is obvious just because you'll go for the submission naturally without "forcing it."  I once had the opportunity to train with Erik Paulson and he kept drilling into my head the necessity to practice a move 300 to 400 times.  Your moves have to flow, so if you're spending even a second thinking about it before actually doing it, you've probably already lost your chance.  Take some time before and after class with partner to drill a technique over and over again, it'll help your game tremendously.\n\nAs far as my comment regarding linking your subs, learn which subs can lead to others (i.e. an Americana can lead to a kimura, etc.)  Oftentimes, using one submission to set up another can really confuse your opponent.  They'll attempt to defend one and oftentimes focus so hard on defending that sub, that they'll forget about anything else.\n\nTransitioning is also a good moment to catch people off guard.  One I like using in particular is to go from rear mount (if your opponent is in four-point position) to triangle.  Using your opponent's desperation to get out of a potentially "bad position" is a great way to put them in an even worse position without them knowing.\n\nLast, but not least, don't be afraid to try submissions and fail.  You can't learn new subs (or different ways of doing subs you already know) if you don't try.  Regardless of how crazy the setup may seem, you won't know it's effectiveness unless you put it on the table...

Well I can't think of one art that focuses on all of the things that you name. Brazillian Jujitsu probably comes the closest. It focuses on grappling, pressure points, and submissions. I believe they do have some takedowns but most of it is groundfighting so I wouldn't consider take downs to be a part of the focus. On the flipside, Judo focuses on takedowns, grappling, and submissions but not so much on pressure points because it is a sport. Then there is Japanese Jujitsu, which is what I practice, and we focus on take downs, pressure points, and submissions. We don't do so much grappling but it is there. So all in all, if you want to focus on all of the elements you named, I would combine a couple of martial arts (BJJ and Judo would be quite effective if you want to compete in a fight competition or just get in good shape. If you are looking to study for pure self defense, then BJJ and Japanese Jujitsu would be good).
