Which is better to learn krav maga or taekwondo?

I've spent time training in both (4 years in Krav & 15-20 years in TKD)* and basically agree with the other answers. Ultimately, it depends on what you want to get out of it and most importantly, the schools and instructors. read more

However, if your only goal is to learn self-defense/fighting skills, taekwondo is usually not the best choice (in real fights it is only occasionally effective), and your time would be more efficiently spent pairing krav maga with a more"MMA-verified" sportive art such as BJJ/Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, wrestling, boxing, muay thai, or MMA itself. read more
