But that depends on the instructor and what he/she wants you to be like.

So, are people disagreeing with marshall arts? Or disagreeing with martial arts before a certain age? Or just disagreeing with pushy parents living out their dreams through their kids?

Re: Strictly baby fighting club

i do or should I say did as ive not been for a few months, Muah Thai Boxing and my son and daughter have both done it too. the class i go to has a number of kids (all over 8. Instructor has an age limit as he says that under 8s tend to not listen and follow instruction. He will make the exception if a child can prove that he will listen and do as he is told.

My son has also done Taekwondo (6 months) but got bored. Karate got fed up repeating the same moves all the time. He likes Muay Thai cos he actually gets to hit and kick stuff.

I love it as it gets rid of the days frustrations and comes in handy with chavs touch you up in the shop. I dont do the gradings though as I dont like the prayer moves, I feel silly doing them. I just like to punch and kick8)

Re: Strictly baby fighting club

The advanced group in my tai chi class- all over 80- just started with the weapons forms, I'm a bit concerned that teaching people at that age how to batter people with sticks is setting the scenes for carnage in the care homes in a couple of years. "Take your pills Mr Johnston" "NO!" <WHACK!>
