Why should seniors become involved in martial arts?
Staying active is important to people in their 50’s, 60’s or even 70’s. As we age, our bodies become brittle. The importance of daily activity cannot be more emphasised by this fact. Of course, physical limitations and health considerations need to be addressed before engaging in this type of activity. But the beauty of martial arts is that it is for everyone, no matter the age, and can be tailor-made to suit anyone of any fitness level.
Like most people, seniors turn to martial arts for the same reasons such as improved physical fitness and mental alertness. But more than that, martial arts is an activity that seniors choose to undertake to discover how far their physical capabilities can take them while learning something new.
