hi. i wanna be able to stand up for myself if needed and rite now im helpless. and ive just always been intereseted in this kinda thing, so i want to take some sort of self defense class but i dont know which one. the only place in my town that has self defense has karate(shito-ryu), wing chun, and kick boxing. they have others but im 13 and those are the only ones im old enough to take. sooo... what cha think?
 
Shop around. Always go and observe a few classes (it cost nothing to watch) and see if the club, style and instructors suit you.

Some forms don't have any age restrictions, they even have cubs which are for 3 years old and up.

A quick self defense course will help a little, but won't get you out of trouble. You need to train in a particular martial art for a few years.

I take my girls (4 & 6) to ITA and they just love it. They also have personal safety classes, so you can learn to avoid trouble.
 
i think.........go for it. they all have something to offer. and if thats all that's available to you, then you don't have much choice. my personal choice would probably be wing chun and kickboxing. shito ryu does too many kata for my taste. you're learning 50 kata rather than learning how to use them.

WEll I am glad you did not ask a question that gets asked every single day...I mean its not like you could do a search and find the answer.

And of COURSE there is one best martial art...and the 10s of thousands practicing other arts just have not figured that out yet...they are all deluded fools...
