Some people may train pretty forms that work well in combat, but self defence has little to do with looking nice. Self defence is based on pragmatism, whereas performance art is interested in aesthetic appearance.
If you want to develop self defence skills, make self defence your primary concern. Pare away anything that is improbable, exaggerated or flamboyant - train only what you need to. Fans, swords and spears are not viable self defence tools for the 21st Century.
Lose everything that eats up your training time.
