Well .. lots of replies on this. I'm not looking to be the next ninja, or even compete for that matter. Although I say that now but tend to be a bit competitive sometimes .... I've done the Aus Army's version of the 'one armed wombat' course (unarmed combat) and that was interesting. We did some armed stuff too, but I doubt I'll have an entrenching tool handy if anyone ever jumps me in the high street (again).
I want the fitness, the discipline and a bit of knowledge.
I'm going to check out some local schools/gyms/etc and see what I can come up with and take it from there. Thanks for all your help
