Age and when you began

Hiya everyone,

 

what age did you begin learning martial arts, and how old are you now?

 

 

It is only with the heart that one can see clearly, for the most essential things are invisible to the eye.

I began recently, and I'm 19.

 

The nice thing about martial arts is that you can begin at most any age. Certainly one can excel at a martial art and not begin at age 5 or 6, as is the case with musical instruments (always wanted to play the violin!), dance, etc.

I began training in TKD at 33, that was 10 years ago.... :bdaybiggrin: (you can do the math!)

 

Unlike our male MA counterparts, we females have to discontinue training to have a family. Such was the case for me at 35 when I had my 3rd child but continued training shortly thereafter.

It takes sacrifice to be the best.


There are always two choices, two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it's easy.

Started at 13 and i am now 15. Hey and guess what its my 2 year aniversity today!

I am training for myself not anyone else.. to be the best I can be in everything.
