I want to be in poms but I have never had dancing classes before and not to good

Question:I really want to join poms next year after I saw them this year I really want to try out. I'm not to good at dancing but I would like to go to a dance studio over the summer but I don't want to look like an idiot when people have been in dance classes since they were really young. Are there any dance classes for people like me who have never had dance classes before?

BTW I'm 14 and will be a softmore next school year.

If you really want this. Then you should be willing to start as a beginner. When you go to a dance studio, there are classes for beginner. Just go and have fun. Don't care about what other people think because when you do that when a person usually quits, so go for it. It will be hard and difficult at times but you can do it. If you don't at least try you will never know. I am a grandmother who has done many different thing in her life, sports, jobs, and love. Some were wonderful, fun, and learning experiences that I'm very glad I went through. Some weren't but it made me the person I am today, so I wouldn't change anything. I done pretty good with my life so far(45), so go take the dance lesson and become a pom girl. GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!!! IF YOU DON'T TRY YOU WILL NEVER KNOW IF YOU COULD HAVE MADE IT!!!

whats poms?

If its cheerleading and you want to go to a dance class it doesnt matter that you havent been there before great dancers start when there grown it stimulates the dancer better try it out. Ballet Classes are the best.

I say go ahead. Dance, unless you're talking about tech and stuff, is one of those things that you can either pull off really well or not at all. Besides, everybody started at one point or another, right?

poms? lmfao its cheerleading.

Actually, to the other people posting, pom pon is a sport at a lot of high schools and colleges and it's completely different from cheerleading. And to you, the person asking the question: In my opinion (not saying it's right), it's not so much about being able to dance well, it's about being able to learn routines quickly, stay sharp, and be flexible. Make sure you always smile and keep your head up, and don't mouth the 8-counts. Some studios offer pom classes geared toward high school pom tryouts. One in my area has mock tryouts for girls who can to try out for pom at school. Pom is weird in the way that it's totally similar to dance but at the same time the total opposite: Dance is fluid motion, pom is stiff. Good luck! And don't be intimidated!
