No way am I going barefoot though. Bugger that. I was sparring yesterday and the trained fighters were taking me apart. Give me a year or two so I at least know how to block. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some long arms and fight people with shorter arms is my advice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8MileBU Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Having survived my 2nd Thai boxing class and becoming a certified killing machine in the process, I can confirm that real fighters go bare foot. Have you learned your Wai Kru yet? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 38 but the class that I attend is for all levels. I don't think age will come into it if you want to learn. Competing may be another matter though as you'd be up against younger, quicker guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8MileBU Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Are there classes for older people? Asking for a friend. Age 5 upwards generally. No limits at the other end of the age scale in my experience.

Yep. Plenty folk go just for the fitness and self defence aspects. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully I'll get to a level where I'm a decent sparring partner for the younger competitors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of guys in their late 30's/40's fight at inter-club events. There are usually a good few clubs with "older" (horrendous phrase) competitors having their first bout. If you can get to a level you can hold your own when sparring with the younger guys who are looking to compete then you should speak to your trainer and see if he can find an opponent of similar age/level at another club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
