I have a friend who owns a BJJ dojo (if that is the correct term for where he does business). He invited me for a free session. I quickly found out:
1. Their warm up was way beyond my physical ability at the time. It was a cardio session all by itself
2. I'm a lot more uncoordinated than even I thought. The most basic moves to start learning how to take a fall were something I that I could not begin to execute correctly.
3. Their sparring is pretty intense - too intense I judged for a guy my age. A much younger man was hurt the night that I was there.

I can see the value in the skills and which that I felt like I could ease into building them without impacting the group classes that he teaches. But I'm going going be 100 yard sprinter at my age. YMMV.
