kung fu sounds right. Kwai Chang Cane seemed pretty mellow in the show Kung Fu.
you'll find that a lot of styles of kung fu (if theyre good)incorporate their grappling, joint locking and other nasty kill move stuff into their tai chi which they offer
it REALLY depends on the sifu you have on whther you will be more peaceful as a result of your training. scout about a bit
....a lot of these 'so called' kung fu masters or instructors are dudes who went and trained for like a few years and decided to ecome a master of some oriental sounding art they made up
the less agressive animal styles (like say crane as opposed to a big nasty animal like bear or tiger) TEND to be more proportinal in their force so they will advocate making your opponenet submit and only killing/maiming when necessary, whereas the bigger animals might advocate annihilating the fuck outta him
thats a generalisation though, every style is different and some incorporate more than one animal
tai chi WILL relax you, but on its own isnt that practical for fighting. its also frustrating to learn but thats where all the discipline malarky comes in. that and kung fu mightb worth your while. just pop along to your local dojo or whatever and see whats on offer

so saint you're not gonna do the grappling/submission shit anymore?
I have trained in several different styles. Find one with an instructor that YOU like.
I taught for 7 years and all of my students called me by my first name, we laughed, had fun, joked a lot...and always learned. My students also stayed out of trouble. Since I stopped teaching...2 of my students have been in and out of trouble (legally, drugs, etc..). I remember seeing one of their parents out and them telling me that they wished I would teach again...that it kept their kids out of trouble.
