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!

I have about 20 students in all and of those 12 are male, 8 are female. The highest grade in the class is a male 1st kyu next is a female 3rd kyu. After that the females are generally the higher ranked. I tend to find that although as a rule the females tend to drop out more, they are generally quicker learners and usually have much, much better co-ordination to begin with. Oh, karate class, BTW.

In my American Kenpo school, it's currently adult females, 2 (two women being away, one in the Navy and one on medical leave.)
Adult males: 5, but only one attending regularly. (One absentee has gone home for the summer from college, one's a law enforcement officer whose schedule is errratic, the other two seem to be AWOL.
By my obeservation, the drop-out rates seem similar between males and females, but the females seem to drop out sooner. The guys will often give it more of a chance before leaving.

In the beginners class in my karate school, there might actually be more girls than guys, but the guys seem to come more often. But in the intermediate class, there's more guys (possibly because this is when my school starts us sparring, and I've talked to alot of other girls and women who get really apprehensive about sparring, so maybe they just quit). Then it evens out again in the advanced class. Actually, I'd say one of the school's best students is a 14-year-old girl (who is amazingly dedicated and has been doing martial arts for most of her life). Both of my main instructors are male. It's pretty even, I'd say.

About 25% female, but when I taught a kickboxing class to get in shape 100% female cool.  Kevin

I think there's about 60-40 men-women in my dojang, but it varies from training to training (I've seen it go to 20-80 men-women on certain trainings, and vice versa)
