Hi,
I’m John, from the north of Scotland, and I joined the Elite Academy a few days ago. This represents my next step in what’s been quite a journey so far. Especially as I just turned 60 in January this year.
After a couple of years ill health, I stopped drinking alcohol for good 17 months ago. I’ve lost around 50pounds in weight over the past three years and am now the weight I was in my early 20s. I now have a healthy diet and my 60th birthday present to myself was a gym membership. But with my age, I still feel vulnerable compared with my younger self, and while I’ve thought about it, I haven’t yet joined a martial arts club. There is a very reputable combat centre 10 minutes walk from my house, so I have somewhere to go when I feel ready.
In the meantime, I can get going here and hopefully improve my confidence over time. I already got the combative’ fast course and the 60minute self defence pack back in 2020 and was very impressed with the quality of the tuition offered. I’m looking forward to getting stuck in.
Thanks,
John.
