So I showed up in time for the last 15 minutes of the kids class and got to join in. Heh.
I tell you this...some adults may feel the full range of negative emotions from being stuck in a kids' class, from embarassment to outrage, but I think I'd have to tell them to just get over their bad selves.
Yep, I was the oldest, and yep, I was the only white belt. But guess what?
Kids? Even the teenagers I was paired with? Damned forgiving and not at all worried about being paired with a 'lesser' rank (or a 'grown up', for that matter). Everyone just wants to learn, and learn we did (and I got some experience with doing actual kicks and sparring, which is good--that's what I'm gonna need in order to improve.)
As it is, I'm still the only adult student he has, so...I'm on the 6:30 class now. With the kids. Hee. :)
(Hey, training with people younger, faster, and more flexible than me will do me good. *g*)
