I want to learn karate at 27 but I’m worried I’ll be ridiculed by the Dojo for being too old compared to everyone

Am I overthinking it

You're not late but injuries will start to become more permanent. Make SURE to thoroughly stretch and build strength progressively. Also, I think karate is retarded, you demolish your hands without ever getting a cent for it. Try kendo instead for maximum LARP, or judo for something at least practical.

Yup. Just go to the adult classes. If they do have a problem with it you can just leave and try a different place that has no issue.

It's either going to be
>I want to join
>Okay.

or
>I want to join
>No, fuck off.
>Okay, bye.

No, when I was in tae kwon do as a kid there were a ton of adults ranging between their 20s, 30s, 40s, etc. the oldest guy I had to spar against was some 50 something year old dude, naturally I lost.
