could be anything from boxing to muay thai to jiujitsu to wrestling
which one are you most interested in? picking the one you're more likely to enjoy will mean that you'll continue to do it as a hobby instead of treating it as a work out and you'll get more enjoyment out of it
keep in mind that boxing is going to be the cheaper option of those.
jiu jitsu/muay thai/wrestling/mma classes are usually in the $100+ range. dynamic mma does offer a combination of all of those for ~$150/month if you pre-pay for 3 months in advance. they're really good because they're close to langara and they have classes mon-sunday and their schedule is pretty good compared to the rest of the gyms out there.
Adam teaches the jiu jitsu/mma part and Joel does most of the muay thai training. I don't go there anymore but I enjoyed my time there and all the guys were real nice and understanding to the noobs that showed up.
