Introduction	I am the oldest and smallest student at our dojo. So, at almost 71, I am also slower & need time. But, I get there...I am preparing to test for 3rd degree black belt--with much help from my friends. Married to a univ. Prof....the brainy type, I adore! 2 grown kids, & 5 grandchildren...all brilliant (of course). Everyone in this family was or is a teacher. NO ONE calls me sensei, as I am the same size as the kids, or shorter...or, maybe they don't think I deserve it---- Whatever...Nana or Jude will do. This sport has changed my life. For any female, it is the ULTIMATE in a sense of inpowerment!!!! TRY IT!
