Best Answer

For shorter fighters, the recommended Martial Arts are the softer ones such as Judo, Jujutsu, Aikido, Brazilian Jiujitsu, Hapkido, Shuai Jiao, and many others, particularly because they are highly advantageous against bigger (and heavier) fighters.

The advantages of shorter people, as you know, are that they are harder to hit and more agile.

However, these are not necessarily the BEST martial arts. I personally know some Taekwondo and Karate practitioners who are damn-near unbeatable and untouchable in combat.

And of course, remember the oft-repeated phrase 'It is the person, not the style'

It isn't the style, it is the practitioner that is the key. When choosing a style, each person should look at why they want to learn a martial art, and also at their own physical build to determine what martial art would be best for them to learn. Some people will even take sample classes in several different martial arts before they find the one that is the best fit for them.
