For beginners the particular style you train in is not as important as where you train and who the instructor is. My advice is to go to several schools and watch an adult class (or even participate if they let you). Pay attention to how the instructor treats the students and the caliber of the higher ranking students (the order of color belts changes from style to style but usually darker colors like brown and red are higher up). It is important to look at the students because being a good martial artist does not automatically make you a good teacher. Even if the first school you go to seems perfect, I strongly suggest visiting 4 or 5 different schools.

Short and simple answer. Muay Thai! You can thank me later.
