Skate all you want - it's never too late to learn and have fun!

no and since you did ballet the skating will come easier to you

yea, figure skaters are trained since thier early youth. You would just make a fool of yourself if you tried.

its never 2 late
good luck =)

l know loads of aged people who figure skate. it aint too late.

it's not to let to start ice skating it is really fun on the ice

I would say go for it because of your ballet background but it ,may be hard on your ankles so take it slow.

It's deffinitely not too late. And your ballet experience will make you look very graceful on the ice =)

Don't listen to that cool cat!

No, it's definitely not too late! I used to be a figure skater before I gave it up and started ballet instead. If you've had six years of ballet technique and experience figure skating will come to you very easily.

The only difficult thing I found with figure skating was lifting my arabesque up really high with the figure skates; they are a bit heavy. But then again, I hadn't taken up dance before I started figure starting, so my feet and ankles weren't very strong.

Figure skating is a beautiful sport. It is a nice and cool atmosphere, and it focuses more on technique and skills then body shape and feet, which is quite important in ballet. I understand your boredom of ballet, many people quit because of its tediousness.

Best of luck in the future!
