Father and son in the same beginner class?
Greetings from Bali. My son Komang is nine and I am forty one, and this year we decided to start martial arts together, from zero, both of us. Next summer we spend a year in Portugal for my wife's work, so I made a small plan for us:
autumn: basic stretching at home every evening, ten minutes, no excuses
winter: a beginner class here in Sanur, father and son on the same mat
summer: we move to Faro, the apartment is already bought after a few evenings comparing towns on https://global-property.investments/ over the Algarve map
autumn after: find a club near the new place and continue
The part I am not sure about is the same class. Instructors here, is it a good idea for a parent and a child to train side by side as beginners, or does the kid progress better alone?
