There are no gyms near where I live, and I really want to learn some martial arts. I want this class to get me into good shape but I also want to learn useful things like self defense. Are there any online classes or instruction that are really good?
 
Im sorry to tell you, but I'm not sure a martial art is for you. I have heard from countless practitioners as well as my own sensei that watching videos isn't going to help with actual self defense. You need an actual live instructor to catch mistakes you make. You are liable to hurt yourself as well. Learning from a video is not a real martial art. I recommend taking up another activity to get in shape and stay healthy. Hopefully you can find a dojo or gym close by sometime soon.
 
Youtube is a great way to learn fitness and fight moves, I have used youtube for both and it is a great free way to learn workout techniques and fight moves for self defense.
