ballet is not a problem with your height. in fact, because of your size it will be easier to find you a dance partner if/when you get to that level.

it doesn't matter what age you start ballet because it's for the enjoyment. idk how far you will make it or if you will get to the professional level but doing it for just an activity is just as good.

and even if you try it out and end up not liking it, who cares? you can quit and try something else new

yes. definitly do it.

yeah...it gets me so happy when people chose to dance ballet and it is ver possibleable but the thing is you might not do profesional ballet but shoot for what you want

p.s. im 13 five four and 95 pounds and feel like im a sky scraper compared to the other girls in my class

Omg. Girl go for it. They shouldn't be able to take away that right from you. Hope I helped!!!!!

There is NEVER a limit on how old you have to be when you start dancing. Usually, studios will offer a teenage-adult class for older teenagers and adults who haven't been dancing long.

Make sure you stretch well and get used to stretching your feet. I'm sorry to tell you, it will be painful, if you're doing it right. It's totally worth it though.

You need to get the right size ballet shoes because this will make all of the difference.

Have fun dancing.

I think you should just go for it...if you truly think Ballet is for you. If you do ballet, I heard your body gets into like a really pretty shape. (NOT THAT IM CALLING YOU FAT!)
I REALLY THINK You SHOULD GO FOR IT!
instead of regretting it in the future.
