xD DAP martial arts, huh? Honestly, I’m not even looking for something for self-defense... I need something more geared toward offense ^.^

It’s kind of like Muay Thai, or something along those lines 🙂
but I’m also really interested in Judo techniques, leg strikes, hand strikes—honestly, everything about it catches my interest 🙂...

I have a question 🙂
I’m on the shorter side—about 5'2"—but I’ve got plenty of power; my fast-twitch muscles definitely take precedence over the slow ones. Right now, I'm following a specific summer regimen designed to boost my speed, endurance, and raw strength simultaneously... essentially, I'm doing hybrid muscle training.
I want to pick up a martial art that is truly effective and devastating against street fighters. I need something where the techniques for both defense and offense allow me to actually overcome a typical aggressor.
😛

So, what I'm wondering is: which martial arts focus most on pure strength, which prioritize speed, and so on? Ultimately, which discipline would be the absolute best fit for someone with my build—short, powerful, and weighing around 117 lbs?

Also, I've recently started practicing parkour. 🙂

(My ultimate goal is to become formidable in combat, because I need to be able to hold my own against my father, who was trained by the military and trains every single day.) 😁
