I've wanted to take Krav for a long time. I also think I need to take some EMT classes as well.

I'm a grown old fart and have never required self defense....I can sweet talk my way out of anything

Ideal for self defense

What do you recommend? Been thinking about doing that for a long time...

Anything besides that MMA BS where they literally teach you out of the golden rule which is .. never kick a man while he's down .. I can't even watch it on tv because they spend half the fight in the missionary position.

I'd like to do boxing except I'm 6'5" and I don't think I can put in the work to keep my abs hard enough to absorb blows to my solar plexus and not crumple like a leaf. If a trained boxer ever gets mad at me I'm curling up into a ball.

You have two options:

A) Find a local gym. Most gyms that teach any mixed martial art or boxing typically have self-defense oriented classes.

B) Ask Jangler to find one of the 14 year old girls who has a restraining order on him. She should know a place.

Aikido and Kempo are very practical, Tae Kwon Do not so much.
