I took Akido for a little while, looking to get back into it. Being long in limb and in body (thanks mom and dad) martial arts like karate just aren't good since it seems to be more of a distance attack. And let's face it... people with long limbs take a longer time to extend a limb than a shorter person does. But being freakishly flexible, strong, and quick even for a tall person, I found that Akido was the best fit for me. Not to mention that the guy teaching us studied under the grandson that developed Akido. It was cool.
One of his fellow students when he was learning, went over and now lives in Tokyo, teaching at the original dojo. She can wipe the floor with him. and she's about 2 feet shorter than he is.
