Meet 83 year old Pam Neil currently training for her 5th degree black belt test in January, 2021. Have you ever wondered if age matters in martial arts? Pam Neil is your answer! She also actively trains in Krav Maga. Pam began martial arts 20 years ago in her 60's. When asked what it is like to train with men, we both laughed when she mentioned that the men in class don't punch her hard enough! Martial arts are the base for her personal success, fitness, and how she is aging amazingly gracefully (most think she is in here 60's)! Here you will discover why martial art training is beneficial in a multitude of positive and energizing ways. She says, "This is the goal I want now. Yes. Is to be fit and get my 5th degree. And after my 5th degree, I will set another goal." Don't miss this one! It is super enjoyable and inspiring. She practices and teaches at National Karate Schools of Chicago.
