LA - that sounds great! I really enjoy the karate, but the instructor doesn't do much, if any, warm up. I do jumping-jacks myself during the time that everyone is coming in, visiting, and getting changed, but I'm the only one. I'm the oldest, 40, and believe you need a good warmup before you stretch, especially as you get older.
The instructor himself is young, and stresses the whole idea, the "mind, body, and spirit" aspects, so we get alot of lectures, but I think miss out on too much "body". I think in the more advanced classes they do more pounding on each other.
He has a kick-boxing class too which I might try once my legs feel 100%.
