Starting Martial Arts

We all need a push sometimes, and if you were looking to take up martial arts then this might be the push you’ve been waiting for. This article is about a student’s first steps and serves as a quick guide to starting martial arts. It’s largely based on advice I’ve received from instructors and peers with many years experience. Personally, I’ve only recently been introduced to Karate and Brazilian Ju Jitsu, the latter of which has now become my favourite hobby.
