Self-Defense

Take Your Pants Off

Wanted to learn self-defense for a long time, was at start thinking of joining a boxing club, but that's not really defense and I heard they do not train you, your own your own.
So then after watching a bit of Bruce lee movies(lol) I was like, why not try martial arts, but there are tons of styles out there, so I do not really know which one to choose from, or which club to join in Limerick.
I am looking for a nice club now, that's not too aggressive or has meatheads there wanting to tear the head off another, just want to learn simple self defense, meet with nice and cool people, and make new friends. I was recommended krav maga, but I have not really looked into it yet, would that be my best bet ?
Any recommendations ?

Recently turned 18, if that makes any difference to what style I can do or club I can join

Have heard good things about Limerick Aikido club...know someone involved in it...definitely not meatheads, really technical and graceful from what i gather.
They are out the ballysimon road somewhere(behind wurth i think)

I did Taekwon-do for years with a guy called Jonathan Mullane. Decent lad. Worth looking them up too.
