Hi Stevie - I quite fancy getting fit and have always liked the
look of kickboxing or karate - but would a slightly overweight,
mostly unfit 39 year old be welcome or laughed at?!
Cheers
Mac

Everyone welcome. I have people from the age of 9 up to 40+. It is
better if you can bring a partner as we work in pairs normally, but
not a problem. You only do what you can manage....if for instance i
asked for 50 pressups and you can only do 10, that fine, or you
cant do a type of kick, then you do something else. It not a
problem. Maybe see you there 1 night!
Cheers
Stevie

probably helps if your partner's someone you don't like too much!

Mac - by all means have a stab at the Thai boxing. However you
might want to investigate other martial arts clubs in the
lothians - there are plenty to choose from.
I'm into kickboxing and freestyle karate. If I was 49 I'd
strongly consider kung fu, as its great for posture and
flexibility but also teaches meditation, and of course wicked
self-defence.
I used to attend a great class made up of mostly middle aged
guys, but gave up to concentrate on kick boxing. Have a wee look
here: http://www.kungfuclub.co.uk/
It's pretty demanding but a lot of fun.

Good Idea At The Time Situation... Best look out some loose fitting
trousers or leesure wear. Oh, I don't have any leesure wear. Or
trainers.
And I think I have a sniffle coming on.
