Hi angel_rider,
Pleased to meet ya!!

Before you go selecting an exotic foreign Martial Art
consider some local systems which are native to the
Philippines: Escrima, Kali, Modern Arnis which are
totally awesome!!

Hey joemar, you tell him!!

I agree with kenpodog, look into the native systems if you get a chance. Learning a style in the country of its origin has to have perks. In any case, sit in on some classes from different styles. Instructors are usually happy to see new faces and discuss their schools art.
Welcome to the forum. Let us know how it goes.

What it really comes down to is the individual schools. Check them out, take their free class or watch a class. Styles will vary wildly between schools just as they do between people.

Short answer; "Yes"

Middle length answer; "Yes, but."

Full answer; "Yes, but you will be missing out on an important part of learning. A book is incapable of looking at your form and correcting minor errors that you, not knowing that you are making an error, will be unable to see."
