By doing what you did and actualy using it.
Most schools dont hit which is why a lot of guys take some type of "martial art" for a few years then get their noses bloodied by some punk.
Ive seen a few styles and trained a bit myself. I have come to the conclusion it almost doesnt matter what "style" you take as long as you hit and get hit.
Using it in the street is a dangerous proposition however.
What I look for in a school is if they actualy spar and hit. Competition in the ring helps too and by that I dont mean point systems.
Lethality aside, Ive noticed that true hitting styles like boxing, kick boxing, and grappling like brazilian jujitsu or sambo dominate UFC.
You did say self defense, not martial art-
