What self defense cl... 10 points?

Self defense is not boxing or kick boxing or sport martial arts. It is a separate part of martial arts. There are probably less qualified self defense instructors than qualified kick boxing instructors. So choose wisely. If you are serious and feel the need to learn self defense chose the school that has adult cles. I encourage my own daughter to take self defense cles and she had similar arguments. Fortunately good sense won out and she now trains where she is next to youngest in the cl. You may find the older students more serious and will make less fun of you. Everyone starts knowing little or nothing, it's no big deal.
