Question: I want to start dance!. Am i to old to just be starting!?

Ive never did any sport in my life i asked when i was little but just my parents never really went threw with it and now that im old enough to make that decision on my own that's something i really want to do!.

Don't worry about being to old!. You don't have to be a certain age to do dance!. I'm fourteen, and I just started up dance again!. At first, it was kinda awkward since I was the oldest in ballet, but I love dance so now it doesn't even get to me that I'm in a class with little kids!. And you don't have to be flexible, though it would really help!. But with hip-hop, its not about the flexibility, its about feeling the music and portraying something through the dance moves and just HAVING FUN!
And don't worry about having to try out; just go to a nearby dance studio and sign up for a beginner class!. You'll love it! And don't forget- it's all about just having fun!Www@QuestionHome@Com

You're never too old to dance!. I started taking dance (jazz) seriously when I was 14, and never looked back since!. :) Since you're likely going to be in a beginner's class, don't worry about your flexibility at the moment!. The instructors won't expect much from you except that you do your best and perform to your fullest!.

You will eventually become more flexible as you progress, so don't worry! Have fun, and just do it!Www@QuestionHome@Com

First of all, its never too late to start dancing! As long as you are motivated and enjoy doing it with all of your heart you should never hold back! You dont really need to be flexible to do hip hop, but ballet is the core of all dancing!. Depending on where you would take dancing, you wont have to try out unless you want to be on a competition team!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Heya! Im 14 and im homeschooled as well!
I just started dance [hip hop and jazz] for the first time ever
about 2 months ago!.
You dont have to be really flexible when you start!.
I am definitly not! lol!.
You work on getting your flexibility up in class!.
Anyways to the question!
NOO your not too old! I thought I was too old
but to start dance you dont have to start
at a specific age!. Sure it may be nice
to start early but oh well!. Its fine :)
