One of the great things about Jiu Jitsu is that there is NO age limit! It is a sport for EVERYONE!
I started at a little bit of an older age ;) and plan to continue as long as I can walk (or ROLL)

Martial Arts is a dynamic means of developing and maintaining a healthy and rewarding life. Children can start learning at a very young age. In fact the younger the better! The sooner they become active the better chance that they will stay that way. It has also been shown that in Seniors who maintain a training regimen, can do so for the rest of their lives. Helio Gracie is a prime example. Until his passing at the age of 95, Helio continued to teach and train with students of all ages. These two pictures are a golden example of what our lives can be at any age - STRONG,HEALTHY, and EMPOWERED!
Here is another great example!
