If you want something full contact, try Aikido, which is MUCH MUCH softer and may be more useful on the street.
I don't know where you take your Aikido classes, but I'd like to try it! Each and every Aikido class I've attended has KICKED MY BUTT, and I've been sore for days afterward. (Perhaps I should work on my rolls and break falls, no?) In any case, I wouldn't discredit the harshness of an Aikido class. Those guys take a beating just as much as the others.

... except Jujitsu people. Those guys are crazy. Too much some self-abuse for my taste!
