Question:

Can you start ballet at 14? I've done other styles like it but not ballet.?

Yeah I wanna do ballet, and I have everything you need:
-determination/motivation
-strong legs
-fit

But I'm 14. I'm not sure at the moment if I want it as a career but yeah. Then theres the problem of having to work with younger kids, I don't mind 12yrs up but yeah, can you imagine the concerts??? Also how long will it take to get to pointe?

Please help! :)

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: of course you should definitely start ballet, i'm sixteen and just started this year its great, my studio offers teen classes so i don't feel like the oldest person, also if you have experience in other areas you'll catch on fast and you may even be able to start pointe next fall or so if you build up enough technique this year, go for it!
