So what martial art do you folks practice?

I don't practice any contact MA, i'm not really big on sparring. I currently do Kyudo and Chinese Lion Dance. I've been gradually doing more sports as part of my "rehabilitation" from games to real world activities. Been doing Kyudo for 2 years and just started lion dance this year. Thinking of adding something else to the mix thats more practical in terms of defense.

I was thinking of either trying out Aikido or Muay Thai. Honestly I'm a little scared of Muay Thai because the conditioning involved seems rather intense. Does anyone have any experience with it?

And can anyone here explain to me the difference between Aikido and Judo?
