Contray to some opinions, age doesn't have much to do with it!. It's all about technique!. Yes, you should not be en pointe if you're younger than 12, but otherwise!? Age does not matter as much as technique does!.

I cannot tell you if you should move up without seeing you dance, so I would recommend asking your teacher if she thinks you're ready for the next level!. Teachers do not mind students asking if they can move up, so long as the student is ready to hear that they might not be ready and ready to work on what needs to be worked on!.

good luck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

So I take it you've been doing ballet for 4 years!. How old are you!? You could go to point!. Usually you have tp pass al 7 levels of ballet first, but if your in level 4 and they say your really good you could go to point!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It depends how old you are now, but people tend to move up faster when they are younger because its easier to move up when you're younger!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No one on here can tell you that, you know what you can do so if your ready, go for it!Www@QuestionHome@Com
