If you're doing lifts, and they guy thinks you're too heavy, He needs to lift some weights. From your description, you have a pretty ideal BMI and weight for your age and hight.

That seems a perfect weight

Its NORMAL on three out of three bmi calculators. Dont go any lower. If you need to lose weight a little, do it HEALTHY. Dont go all anerexic. You're perfect the way you are. When you are seriously training is the time to think about your body and things, but for now, your body is changing, and it will end up beautiful.

Every weight is perfect!You can be a ballerina!

ok. i am a ballerina too. i am 5'1 like u and im 15. the proper weight should be 108-112 ok. don't lose weight. most of ur weight are muscles. it would be really unhealthy to lose anything.

There isn't a perfect weight. Not trust everything about BMI. By BMI I am just barely in the healthy category (I'm 5'1'' and 130), but after body fat percentage and hip-waist ratio and all that, it's established that I have hardly any fat (I'm pretty muscular--I'm an Irish dancer so I have rock solid thighs and butt...not even kidding). Don't try to think that you're too heavy. Think of it this way, you're not even heavy enough to donate blood.

ballerinas should NOT be judged by weight. no matter wat weight, height, or age, a person can be an amazing ballerina. as long as he/she has the passion for ballet!

Because youre muscular, that's a good size for you. I'm much taller than the average dancer so I always notice the way individual dancers are built. Paloma Herrera is muscular and she looks ebautiful, strong and graceful. She dances beautifully, and she looks like a woman, not a twelve year old boy. I bet you look fantastic when you dance!
