Hi Dave>I started only 6 month's ago and I am 42. Well I do have to admitt that it was quite a thing to start calling to find a class in a school. Looking back I have to say that I was always taken very serius and was well advised. I did find a school an am now having 3 hours of class every week. Its great fun and in the class I am in I am the only man.>I never had any problem's with being a man. All have been and are very helpfull. At first do not bother about what to dress. All that will be very clear after your first start.>If you have any further questions, send me a EMAIL>smart [/i]
