I just had a training session with Tino Ceberano over the weekend. He is 65 years old. You should have seen the man move!!! Increadible!

Wow, I shouldnt have been worried about being too old. Turns out I was the youngest 'new' adult in the class. And a 5th Dan instructor told me he didnt start until he was 25.

I had a great time at the class and can't wait to learn more.

You're never too old to start training in MA. I started TKD in May of this year and I'm 28, but it wasn't too hard for me because I trained in Shotokan until about 3 years ago. We did have a lady start training with us a few months back. She is 46 and is doing awesome. She even got 1st place at the last tournament.

I started at 34. I'm 37 now, and just got my brown belt. I enjoy every minute of it. I've always kept fit through running, cycling and swimming, so didn't find fitness a problem. The main issue is flexibility - have to do a lot of stretching to compensate for my age. And I'll never be as fast as a teenager. But MA is a great thing to do at any age.

You're not too old to start up MA... most of the poeople in my class are over 35! :o I'd say you're young enough to begin! :lol: :)

I was 35 when I started TKD, and between 35 and 40 I learned to snow ski and scuba dive!!! That was six years ago and still going strong, my next adventure will be to skydive, can't wait and can't convince my hubby to do it with me :o

you're never too old. i once taught an 80 year old woman who stuck in there and made it through to her black belt. took a bit longer, but she stuck in there and was really good at what she did.
