Krav Maga and, Does age matter

Pantera varro

Hi, i'm 45 and i have been interested i taking Krav Maga lessons for a while now but i have always thought my age would be a problem.
Its not that i'm over weight or unfit,i don't drink or smoke,gave that all up a number of years ago and i try and keep in shape with body weight exercises at home and a bit of cardio,I took shotokan lessons when i was in my late teens and early twenties so that frame of mind never dies
But as i said it's my age,would i look foolish in a class surrounded by youngsters?
I would appreciate any feed back on this .. thanks

All that matters in Krav Maga is that you have money and plenty of it

your age wont be an issue

I don't do Krav Maga but I have a friend who does and to be honest thats an unfair assessment. On paper it seems more expensive but its no more expensive than doing any other MA as it works out about €10 per class which is the drop in rate for a lot of other MA clubs, you just need to sign up to courses rather than pay as you go.

Personally its not for me and any fix-all MA that will teach you to be a lethal weapon over the course of a weekend seem quite far fetched... but each to their own, my mate swears by it so if he is happy, then thats great for him... I'm happy doing Judo/MMA.

Sorry, i was not basing my view on drop in charges

i was basing it on there short courses at extortionate rates

The drop in rates you say are fair.
