Hi Tricia! Welcome to MartialTalk.please give me some suggestions to start martial arts at beginner level.
This really isn't the best thread for questions about starting martial arts - since it's on a different topic, you might not get many people seeing your question.
Why don't you make a post in the Meet & Greet section and introduce yourself. You can ask your question there or make a separate post in the General Martial Arts section. That way people can give you some suggestions relevant to your specific situation.
