I took Tae Kwon Do way back in the day, and I've found a Tai Chi school that I'm going to start at after my surgery, mostly to help heal my weakened shoulder and groin.
I'd also like to echo Antagony on what he said about practicing kata. You may never use the exact motions of a kata in a fight, but you will learn how to defend and attack (theoretically) against multiple attackers. Memorizing a long string of precise motions is also a great mental and physical excersize. And like Antagony said, martial arts have been around for thousands of years, those motions are probably backed up by generations of martial experience.
