I would say any MA dojo that doesn't have a collection of trophies in their front window. If they do or focus on tournaments then they are a combative sport Judo, TKD, and some Karate can go either way. It depends on the instructor and how they teach it.

Boxing might win you a fight but the fact is that it is a sport with rules. Fighting someone who fights with out rules when that is all you know can ruin your whole day.

Krav Maga, most JJ, Gung Fu, Aiki Jitsu and Ninpo are combative arts.

Close to Radok's answer... a combative martial art is one whose training revolves around improving your skills at combat.

Having trophies doesnt mean the place doesnt teach combative martial arts. I train in BJJ and we have a rack full of submission grappling, MMA, and Jiu-Jitsu tournament trophy's
