In my TKD class it's about 20 students. As far as females to males in the adult class we have 4 females counting myself. I'm the highest ranking female (not that I'm bragging so I don't want to come off as being such) and the instructor's daughter is the second highest. The other two are white belts and seem pretty dedicated.

Well, since it's a gender RATIO poll, I'll give a ratio- men:women is about 3:2.

Hello Harlan:

Kara-te probably on average 25-30% depending on a million different factors both known and unknown. Some classes have far far more women than that while others have slightly less

But the CLEAR majority of classes we run won't fit your core criteria. In terms of pure numbers the majority of classes/programs are under 18 years of age...

Long thread...I had to check back to see what 'criteria' you refered to. I think the reason I excluded kids classes was because I suspect most kids are forced to go. I was interested in the ratio of men/women that get to MA and make the assumption that all of them want to be there.

Seeing as Wing Chun is designed for women we do have a good number of them attending. I would say about 60/40 Men/women
