Question:I wanted to start capoera lessons, just for fun because I love to watch it and as a way of excercise. (gym is boring) But before I search for it, i want to know the truth.. I'm 27 years old, and of course I know learning this correctly should take a couple of years. I commit myself to do it patiently and from scratch.. But the question is simple: Am I too old to start learning it? Dunno, some of this activities require starting at an early age. And well, I don't want to be in the class with only 18 yrs old either...

youre never too old to do something that you truly want to do.
go for it, even if your body is slowing down a little,
just means you need to work harder for what you want !

your never 2 old 2 start

If you don't start now, when will you? You have ONE LIFE. GO AHEAD and LIVE IT!

you're ancient

You are NOT to old, I'm 29 I just started also.

nope, as long as you can move and you feel good. well except if you r 80yrs old or fat.

give it a try.

Heheh, just find a class with people around your age!

ur age shouldnt restrict you from doing anything. it more mental than it is physical. if u really want to start these lessons for u n only u then ur starting for the right reason., which means ur 100 times more likely to do well and stick with the lessons. if this is something u wanna do u should do it because if u dont, ull regret not doing it later in your life. i say go for it, make some new friends, n stay in shape the way u want.

You are never to old to start anything. Don't give up just because you think your "Too old". If you want to do it, then you should! And I'm sure you won't be the only one in their late 20's either.
