I am still looking around for a style but came across the above which I had never heard of before. I have checked out various web sites for more information and wondered if anyone had any experience which they could share with me.

Anyone familiar with this style?

I am not familiar with this style, can you state what is the name of the founder, who he/she trained with, favorite techniques/tactics, website of main/hombu dojo, etc?

Thanks!

In looking at the web site, which is all I can really do, I see nothing wrong with it.
If it looks interesting to you, give it a try.
Try not to spend time looking for the best style to get started. You will lose a lot of valuable training time and may very well never start.
This will be a good introduction to martial arts for you, even if you don't stick with this style.

Absolutely loving it! Finding it hard work as I am overweight and so unfit but the instructors take this into consideration without being patronizing.
Just learning the basics at present (oi zuki, age uke, etc.) and getting familiar with the first kata Taikyoko Shodan.
It's the first "exercise class" I look forward to going to! :)
