Hi to everyone -
Just wanted to introduce myself, I am a 46-year-old father/husband. I have started training for the first time in American Kenpo. Six years ago, when my 8-year-old son started in the junior level classes, I promised him if he ever became an instructor I would join. I am NOT sorry I made that promise.
Now at 14 he is doing his prep training as an advanced green rank(adult). He has finished this schools instructor course and officially became an assistant Jr. instructor.
So I signed up and after watching, guiding and coaching him for six years it seems that I already know first part of learning how and what to do, I just need to make my overweight body do the work.
I must say that the training is addictive, I dont want to stop, even as I get so sore and tired, but Im not sure I can withstand my sons schedule of 2 hours, 3 to 4 nights a week.
I would be interested in any comments or pointers for a person of my age just starting out.
