Hi,
I'm a petite lady into Wing Tsun/JKD. I love what I do but my parents are always after me to join a gym. When we lived in a house, it was easy to exercise on the treadmill as we weren't dealing with the same problems of condo life. People hear us on the treadmill so now it's going to be sold (still new too...)
Anyway, I looked into Judo at Pedro's Gym which is supposed to be great but the cost was a tad bit expensive (let's leave it at that) and no way I could afford it. (I'm fortunate to have the martial art teachers I've got which allow for either drop in classes or charge little.) Next week I'll be looking into Tae Kwon Do because there's a small school down the street from my condo. They have hours that fit my schedule so I thought, why not? I don't know if I can afford them either but it's worth a shot to check it out, and no, I've never studied. I'm 38, not flexiable, and have a navel ring.... They won't give out price information over the phone so that's a tip off, but they do allow drop in classes, which is what I wanted to do in the first place since I'm not big in Karate. I just want something that will force me to move and give me a workout but be close to home as my schedule is tight. Any thoughts?
P.S. Should mention that I've been considering Northern Praying Mantis which isn't far from my home - not as close as the TKD but far. I like the Chinese styles but my main goal is excerise and not sure I could afford the Praying Mantis. I do recall they don't allow drop in classes.
