Im interested in getting into martial arts, but am not sure what one to get involved in.

I read in a thread somewhere about a week ago that different martial arts are suited to different people.

Im 120kg (260lbs) 6'3, solidly built and have been doing a fair bit of gym work (only about 20lbs of excess fat on me)

Also, im fairly sure my muscles are predominantly slow twitch (if thats the right terminology) in that i have very limited explosive power.

Can anyone out there suggest a style that would work well for someone of my bulk and slowness ?

edit: im in Auckland, New Zealand, if any of you are locals
