hi guys, does anyone can recommend me a good club for martial arts for adults, such as taekwondo, or others ?

i'm 26 years old, female, live at jurong area. i was practicing taewondo years ago. right now i have plan to start at any martial arts. i prefer the martial arts class which is for adults.

please give me some advice, thanks.

i don't mean that the martial art which design for adult only, i prefer that the class which is designed for adults. actually there is taekwondo class near by my home, but the students are kids around 6-9 years of age so it is almost invisible for me to join their class.

about the type of martial arts, as i stated for goodman's answer, taekwondo or aikido would my choice. muay thai?! mmm... that's too macho for me, i don't want to scare boys. anyway, what is BJJ?
thanks

hello HangJebat, thanks for the info.
Aikido looks interesting, i watched several demonstration videos from youtube.

Used to learn Aikido when i was young. Stopped at Blue-gold belt. Didn't manage to get the black

. Aikido is truely a difficult art to grasp. Many beginners will give up due to the nature of Aikido. You will only be asked to practise rolling before you start on the practising of forms. Anyway, good luck and enjoy your Aikido lessons
