If I do 3 types of Martial Arts will that mess me up?

you will learn far less taking 3 at a time then you would taking one at a time

I'd say it depends on your current knowledge of martial arts. If you have no experience i would suggest picking an art that you enjoy and try to reach a reasonable level of competence before enhancing it with another art. As a beginner you may find it confusing starting with more than one.

Although most martial arts share a common goal they can often differ greatly in the techniques they teach to get there. You will find quite a lot of conflicting things being taught to you. Thats not to say some of these are wrong but some techniques are only correct within the art they are taught. As a beginner this could be hard to get your head around.

Some martial arts are far more diverse in what they teach than others. Maybe one of these would be more suitable for you.

If i were you i forget taking those 3 classes tbh, if you want to become a well-rounded fighter i suggest you take 1 stand-up art and 1 grappling art. Taking 3 different arts will hinder your development and those 3 you picked are all stand-up styles anyway!

If i were you i'd take boxing/Muay Thai/Kickboxing and BJJ/Wrestling, these are the most effective, simple and direct arts to learn i.e they work on the street!

Enrol in some classes and work hard, schedule so you can practice at home too i.e pad/bag work and you will soon be a well-rounded fighter.

Personally i'd take Muay Thai and BJJ as these are easier to accomodate and give you most 'bang for your buck'.

Best of luck dude!

If you plan on 30 years and practice each one for 10 years every day you would probably be pretty good in the first one after 10 years. If you plan on doing them all at once twice a week you probably will not be as good in any of them after 10 years because you are too spread out. Taking everything at once does not safe time, you are slower in getting results and if the things you learn happen to flow together where it is hard to separate them and be effective in generating the power with the appropriate technique it can even slow you down. The most efficient way to learn is to train in one, get good and then pick up the next.

I will answer your question with a question, "Will you be your best in every style?" It is my opinion to learn to appreciate one art at a time until the fundamentals are learned and some sense of mastery is attained. When I train BJJ intensely, my TaeKwonDo is strengthened, but also weakened in some areas. I am a firm believer in being well-rounded.

When it comes to a fight, you are going to react upon instinct. Whatever you commit to muscle memory will come out when "fight or flight" takes over.

No, its more important in HOW you are training them. You need to set clear goals for yourself and what it is you intend to get out of your training. If your goal is self defense, your training needs to be focused to that end. Its going to take a lot of sparring. The only way to really know how to fight, is by fighting. The closest thing to that safely is well, MMA competition, but that's another debate. Point is, you gotta mix it up with some good training partners. Get a lot of time in working the pads with your instructors. And you need to have a supplemental workout program. Doing forms and sparring isn't a fully comprehensive workout from a fitness perspective.

i stared with karate got 1 dan (6 years of training)

took time off to start college and learning to drive and part time job, i did not have time for all.

few years later i took over my instructors kickboxing club

during my kickboxing training my knowledge in karate way very helpful.

and now i do aikido and wing chun done both over two years at first i got mixed up but now its all good its a blessing knowing them.

and ive got three group of friend. i've got one sifu a sensei and a kru (old instructor/ friend) to help me. loads of knowledge.

i do shoto kan karate,hap ki do aikido? on the street its what your reaction is as you know martial arts is not about attack its defence.the more u know the better let them be the agrresor thay will force a mistake

Drop the Tai Kwon Do... it was invented to kick people off of horses, its bollocks! unless of course you want to kick people off of horses.

Stick to the Aikido and Wing Chun, far superior arts.

Hahaha... off course not! a self defense need you to be calm and relax. No matter what they do, what they bring (weapon), and how many people they are.

I don't know Wing chun, but I suggest Shorinji Kempo for the best martial art. It get complete technic of fighting. If in taekwondo you mostly use your feet to kick, and Aikido use the offensive energy from enemy. Kempo is their mother. You'll be teached kick, offensive energy usage, punch, and locking technic to make your enemy goes down. Plus, you'll be teach all about blood spots to use your finger to get your enemy down. Trust me,
