Thanks for the intro shotochem! You're gonna feel right at home here ... there are quite a few of us here that feel as you do regarding their training. Actually I too started out with my son just about 10 years ago ... same thing - he quit and I stayed!
Old age??? You're still young hun! WAIT!!! talk about pains, strains, etc...... You've only just begun!

Hi Shotochem and welcome

Well over six years of shotokan here. I didn't start until I was 37.

It is never too late for karate.
