Take her to both (or maybe even more) classes and see what she likes best. I trained TaeKwon-Do when I was a kid, it was great exercise and my teacher was very military like so it taught me some discipline, plus he really leaned into teaching the 5 Tenets of TaeKwon-Do. As a teenager I also trained some Karate with a random guy who ran a sushi place and had very Mr. Miyagi vibes, he was also big into zen philosophy. I've trained lots of other stuff as well, but at the end of the day it's all to do with what you want out of it, if it's just to have fun whatever she prefers will be best, if it's to teach her self defense possibly Krav Maga or MMA will be the best options, Krav Maga is very focused on self-defense with lots of stuff that would be illegal in most other martial arts, and MMA is the most well rounded rules bound martial arts there is, it essentially borrows from all of the others to train you into being good at all.
