As a former judo/taekwondo/MMA practitionist, I suggest Judo.
Why?
It's an olympic sport, you can potentially represent your state or country if you are good.
It's a self defense martial arts
It's a grappling art which can submit your opponent without causing hurt, unlike striking base martial arts.
Judokas are very cool and chill compare to boxers/strikers.
It's a very high and strict discipline culture, traditional sport(respect and bow to the founder and your senior, and respect to the dojo)
But yes, the gi washing and drying is a pain in the ass, suggest buy 2 Gis.
Preferred martial arts school for kids
