As everyone has been saying, you're not too old to do ballet!. I think it's more of a matter of how in shape you are, not your age, but since you're a martial artist I assume you're in good physical condition to dance!. Martial arts will help you when you start dancing because you already know how to hold your core to balance yourself, which is one of the key things to know in ballet!. Ballet will help you with flexibility and leg/back strength!.

If you go to a more lenient studio, you might be able to get away with wearing athletic pants instead of tights!. You could check at local dance studios to see if they offer adult ballet classes, which are geared toward beginner adults and usually don't require tights!. Otherwise, expect to wear them!. (They're not that bad!!)

I don't know what "camp" is, but most girl dancers love guys who can do ballet!. You won't have any trouble finding a date!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I have been doing ballet for about 9 years now and i hate it, but that's only because it's very difficult!. It also helps me a lot in everything else I do though!. It gives me grace and discipline!. I think any guy who wants to try ballet at (a young age, no worries) to improve their skills in another sport or art is very smart!. Just try it, it might help or you might just hate it!. If that's the case it's not the end of the world!Www@QuestionHome@Com

You are never to old for ballet!. Ballet for men is wonderful!. Male ballet dancers are some of the most amazing and most respected dancers in the world!. I know i most definitly respect all male dancers!. Without male ballet dancers there is no point to all of the amazing jumps that teachers have created!.!.!.!.!.without men ballet is nothing there is no classical pas de deuxWww@QuestionHome@Com

Your never to old for ballet! And I think its great when guys do ballet, because its a very good activity to do and is great excersise, and guys should try ballet because they might just be passing up something they'd really enjoy!.
It'd be great for your MA, it'll make you more graceful and help your foot work!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Ballet is beautiful!. And when I think of a ballerina I think of a girl and a guy dancing!. We need male ballerinas too!. You have to be in great shape though!. I don't know what "Camp" means!. But I dont think there is anything wrong with a guy ballerina!. You know how strong you have to be! You could probable kick alot of guys butts!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Ballet won't help much with martial arts, as you don't use dance technique in martial arts!. If that's your only reason for taking it, I would say that it's not for you!.

By the way, you would have to wear tights at any respectable studio!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
