Definetly not, you hear of most of the Martial Artist people admire starting at a very young age (Example, one of my idols, Jet Li starting Wushu at 8)

So myself, having admired and wanted to become a great martial artist almost all of my life was a little bit discouraged when I started at 16, rather later then alot of other great martial artist, So starting now you are definetly not too young.

No not atall. I just started MMA and im 15(almost 16), and if anything im more athletic and picked it up quicker than the other adults. so i guess its more of how you are personaly. but there's no reason you'd be too young at 16.

Starting young is smart. By the time you're in your 30's, you'll have established a pretty good MA career. Just keep it up and don't quit.

There are some TINY kids in my MT club... a 10yo has already done 6 fights and won 4, and another kid training looks like he's about 4-5...

Yea....I wish I would of started earlier with martial arts, I played around with it when I was about 12-13 but, any age is good to start!! The younger the better!! There are kids in the junior class that are 8 and 9 years old...Some 11 year olds are green and brown belts already. :) Again, the younger the better in my opinon. I started when I was 15 and am 17 now. So I guess Im still beginning and I just got my green belt in Bojokaru
