I started at 17 yrs old, but then after a couple of years I got lazy. I got going again in Chinese Kenpo at the young young age of 29 and WAY overweight. Now, I'm an even younger 30 and not so overweight.

When a man's fortunate time comes, he meets a good friend;

When a man has lost his luck, he meets a beautiful woman.

I started tkd at age 6, trained seriously till age 13, moved and took up isshinryu for about 2 years, to much of a change at that age so I left and trained in american freestyle for about 2 years, left the arts all together in'93. Came back in'02- to isshinryu, and now as an adult, I love it...glad to back, can't see myself without it. :karate:

A punch should stay like a treasure in the sleeve. It should not be used indiscrimately.

When I was 9. This is a good age because you're old enough to understand more, and young enough to easily adapt.

Started at 18.. never really had a chance to train in any MA before I hit college, so I guess I started as soon as I could :P

I started when I was a senior in High School (17). After college I started a different style. I am now 23 and loving Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan. You are never to old to learn something you are interested in!

I started when I was 13, I wish I had started earlier but I was kinda shy :uhoh: :)

God has not given us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of love, a spirit of power, and of self-discipline.
