hi, i’d like to learn taekwondo, but i’m 14 and i feel like a white belt girl at 14 is a bit embarassing… so i’m just wondering, how fast can i… “move” to the green belt/red belt/black belt??
i’m 14 years old, normal height, has a bunyon foot,a bit aggressive, best at sports, pro at soccer(i’m telling you this cause i think it might help with the kickings and stuff?), a bit shy,

So, I am 29 and have just ventured into martial arts. I decided to do Taekwondo. I have always wanted to practice martial arts, but as a child my family did not have the money and as an adult, I was for a long time embarrassed by being so old and being a white belt.
I have been training for about 3 weeks now and am very impressed with the results and so are my instructors. I feel that I am ready for the yellow belt test, but have to wait for a certain period of time.
The school that I practice at considers anyone over the age of 12 an “adult” and they practice with real adults. Now, don’t get me wrong, some of these kids are really impressive, but I feel that I don’t get the attention in my class that I deserve, due to being the only real adult in the class. I pick the stuff up a lot faster than the kids, but don’t know how to explain this to the Masters.
Any suggestions???????
Ok, so, lots of answers, but I am afraid that my question came out in a way I did not mean it to. I am ok in the pace in which my progression is heading. I understand that it is not proper to rush through these things. I was just trying to ask mostly how it would be appropriate to ask for more attention from the instructors. I feel that I am not getting the attention that I deserve due to being in the class with younger kids. Now, reading through the answers though, I feel that I may not be getting the attention due to the fact that I am following directions well and I am picking up on the techniques quickly as well as the execution, so perhaps, that is why I feel that they are not paying attention to me.
Anyway, the school I go to is a very good and sound school, they are small, but very efficient at their instruction. Check them out: www.schoolofrespect.com
I really do love it there, I think I was just confused at what I was thinking at the time.
