I'm a brown belt in Judo and have been doing for about 6 years. Although i havn't done much in the last 6 months. I've been recovering from over use injurires and havn't really felt like going back for more -- also I moved and I don't really like the way the club in town is run.
I agree Bjj is great. i have also done a lot of no gi training as well. Its just fun to learn different aspects on solving the same problems.
Regarding locks and chokes know they bigger locks like elbow, ankle, knee, a few wrist, and your different chokes are probably much more useful as the small joint manipulations as they are more theortical and can take a work to put on as the depend on certain situations.
Suplementing your training with other styles is cool too. Although I wouldn't really worry about it at the moment if you are just starting judo. Getting a good base in something first is a much better idea then doing a bunch of different things at once.
If you are looking for practicality kickboxing is the way too go. But if you have other interests and like what other styles have to offer that's cool to as long as you know what you are going in for. Just make sure you have your spam filters up. If they start spewing grabage like "We can show you how to kill a man, blah blah blah" just leave right away.
Let me know if you want to know anything about judo.
