Kids of all ages can benefit greatly from martial arts training. However, at White Dragon we feel that starting kids who are 4 years or older is ideal. We have classes specifically designed for different age groups, and because we pair each student with their own personal instructor, our kids make great progress. So if you have a child that is 4 years or older, now would be the perfect time to get them started.
Of course not! You are never too old to start benefiting from martial arts training. Our Great Grandmaster is 86 years old and practices his martial arts daily.
