I personally practice Aiki Tenshin Shokai, a form of Aikido influenced by Iai and the Way of Bushido. I enjoy it quite a bit,. Like most Aikido, it focuses on the techniques as a way of unifying mind and body, with the uses for it in combat being secondary (but still important).
Hunnychile, you may wish to try an Aikido school in your area. They often start slowly, and focus on movement and focusing Ki to begin with. Call around, and many of the sensei will let you come and watch a class or two, or even participate in a beginner's class for free to see if you like it.
