I am 14, I like to fight in a"you can't hit me" style but deliver quick devastating blows. But i like looking good while doing it (that could be a plus). I am a self trainer (believe me, you might say i need lessons, but im fine.) What else would be helpful, if you could tell me some exercises that could help me with agility, speed, strength, power and stamina. I also like to have that "dangerous" look when i fight. Thank you!
And i am not Cocky at all. I just want to know how to protect myself. I live in a dangerous city where people run their mouths alot. If u can't defend urself then dig up your own grave.
I'd like all my body (legs, arms, ect to be of use)
 
Walk into any MMA gym, find someone 13-15, fight them, get your face blown off, then say you don't need lessons. Muay Thai has dangerous knees, looks cool, and is very effective. Take up jogging for stamina, get a speed bag for speed, heavy bag or weights for strength, and do stretches, legs lifts, etc. for agility.
 
i can't imagine anything quick and devastating coming from a 14 year old but a bad report card.
Wait!!! I know!!! Hey everyone!!! It's Napoleon Dynamite!! Dude, can I have your autograph
 
Always remember to bow, and then run head first into the nearest wall... get up a lot of speed and run as hard as you can... maybe that will knock some sense into you... I'll bet I could hit you, but it sounds like your parents need to...
 
You should try Shotokan Karate. It has low stances and very precise techniques, which look very strong, and good. There's lots to it, and you develop your own style out of your favourite techniques, so if you prefer quick devastating techniques, there will be something for you! Just ask your sensei (teacher) some good moves which suit you.

You will need lessons, but you can also get good karate DVDs and books so you can also learn at home. You can often get these is sports and book shops.

There are also a lot of sessions you can go to where you train in big groups with some of the best karatekas in this country, these are extra sessions to your usual club ones, your club will be able to give you info on these. There are also a lot of competitions you can enter when you feel your ready. You can go to www.kugb.org to find out about extra sessions, competitions and where your nearest club is.

When looking for your gi (what you wear) and other equipment, try www.kamae.co.uk as they offer a great range of things for great prices. They cater for all types of martial arts, so no matter what you do I'd suggest going there.

Good luck,
