I am aged 62 and in very good health and fitness. I have been thinking about this year beginning training in a martial art. I live in a town which has limited selections, however I seem to have two clubs available to me: Wing Chun (group only trains twice weekly for 90 minutes each sesion); or, an MMA group training in BJJ and Muay Thai (group has five training sessions available each week. Either one seems populated by students much younger than I and I am a little concerned about being too old to fit in and being embarassed should I take longer to be able to make progress.
The MMA group offers more training time but I am wondering if it is all going to be far too physically demanding with grappling etc.
Hope someone can understand my concerns and give some advice.
Thanks...John
