Questions such as this makes me feel antiquated ~laugh~

Provided that you do not have pre-existing physical condition such joint or back problems that would perhaps hinder your ability to practice and train. Then the answer is No its never too late to start training !. Believe it or not , age matters not in the martial arts. In Okinawa as well as other cultures, there are practitioners who are still training over the age of 80 years and beyond.

Getting involved in the martial arts at your age or even older, is one way to keep yourself in shape and who knows , might even slow down your aging process. ~smile~

You have the choice to train as mild or agressive as you like. As long as your are training , you're will be doing just fine and perhaps you may even learn skills that can save your life as well or the lives of someone else. You know what else ? You may even have a great time doing it !

As for acquiring the Black belt , The normal and respectable range would about 3-4 years.

Good luck !
