I know you didn't want numbers on private students, but I thought mine would be statistically significant.

I have 24 students. All train with me privately/semi privately.

11 are women.

Hi,

At my dojo I think the ration women is about 1/4 or 1/3 (including myself).

By the way, this is my first ever post!

Kim





And a very nice one; except that your enthusiasm shows -- "ration women?" I think the question is about 'regular' women

Thanks, everyone, for replying. From what I have read on this topic over the years, the ratio sounds higher than what it was in the past.

BuDoc: thanks for contributing. I didn't mean to discount the private lessons...just trying to keep it simple. I suspect your high female student count probably due to your teaching ability. That, or your dashing nature.

Yeah, Docs always have an unfair advantage when it comes to women, ration or regular

We have about 40-50% women in our adult group but only about 10-15% in the junior section.

We are basically a goju derivative but specialise in a lot of weapons and some BJJ style grappling.

IOW a bit of something for everyone!

While maybe 40% of the kyus are women, only 10% of the BBs are.

The Forum will open up a whole new horizon for you; at least it improves your typing

we have 9 females out of a total of 40 students.
Not a bad ratio compared to other schools I have been to.
I can also see a change in the ratios in recent years. Something which is very good to see!
Some girls in our class flow like it aint no thing!
