Am I too old to start karate?

We’ve had students in their 60’s begin karate with us, and it’s very common for adults in their 40’s and 50’s to join our classes.

Our clubs have many adults in their 40’s and 50’s in class, ranging from senior members to new students, so you won’t feel out of place in the group. As long as you’re in reasonably good health there’s no real upper age limit for starting a karate program but if you have any concerns, it’s best to check with your physician before starting.
