Hey Ben! It’s awesome that you’re thinking about learning something new at 34! While it might seem daunting to start Karate or any martial art as an adult, a lot of people do find great success and enjoyment in it later in life.

Many instructors are incredibly supportive of adult beginners, and you might be surprised by how welcoming the martial arts community can be. The key is to approach it with an open mind and a willingness to learn. Plus, starting as an adult often means you bring more life experience and maturity to the practice, which can be a huge advantage!

And remember, Karate is just one of many martial arts styles out there. If you feel drawn to it, go for it! But don't hesitate to explore other options, like Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, or even Krav Maga, which focus on self-defense.

What interests you most about starting Karate? Is it the physical fitness, the discipline, or perhaps the self-defense aspects?
