Physical Improvements:

1. Improved Balance and Coordination: This type of,
    improvement obviously carries over into other aspects
    of life.  In addition, the student's instinct, agility and speed
    will also show vast improvements with training.

2. Flexibility: One of the first areas change will occur.
    Even touching your toes sets you apart from the majority
    of people. Good flexibility not only promotes good
    posture and physical looks, but will continue to
    improve your life physically as you age.

3. Endurance: Like flexibility, endurance will continue to
    show great improvements as one practices the martial arts.
    Endurance positively affects many other areas of the
    student's life such as overall stamina and energy levels.
    These will continue to increase as one's endurance increases.

4. Overall body Conditioning: Consistent training will help
     the student reduce excess weight, build and then maintain
     good muscle tone, and generally cultivate a good balanced
     physical condition.

As you can see, martial arts is much more than just a work-out. It is an alteration, both physically and mentally, of ones lifestyle that will last a life time.
