I haven't read through the entire thread....

If you are looking for a martial art to get more fit....I've heard good things about TaeKwonDo...i hear they work you like a dog. However, if you are open to suggestions, you may want to look into judo. In judo, on top of it looking really cool at tournaments, their workout is very focussed on CORE strength....which is good to get started while you are young.

Speaking of which, make sure that you do have one day a week of just core, or at least have a session one day a week fully dedicated to core. Core workout is something you totally want to get started at a younger age, very sports-functional, and is good for injury-prevention down the road.
