You are never too old to defend yourself. Self defence demands that you too protect yourself NO MATTER WHAT your physical condition is. Style really doesn't matter, You should learn according to your phisical condition and your fitness.

Never mind about your age for learning self-defence! It depends on what you are interested in for choosing what you will learn. If you want to protect your self from bad guys, I reccomend you to learn Judo or Aikido. These too martial arts are really practical to defend your-self from phisical attack...

Hello Harish, You can learn and do whatever you what at any point in your life. Self defence is just like leaning how to ride a bicycle. Once you master it, it never goes away. The process of learning is the most important part. Good luck!

Age doesn't matter. One needs to become physically fit along with learning any kind of self-defence or martial arts. So doing regular exercising and improving stamina will improve your self-defence learning experience at a fast pace.
