Too old for dance??

Question:All my life I have longed to become a dancer. I love all dance, tap, ballet, ballroom.... I am now 16 and haven't had much training. Am I too old to learn. I don't want to become part of the Royal Ballet or anything like that but just have a basic knowledge and maybe apply it in plays or wherever really!

So, what do you think? Am I too old?? P.S I'm 17 this year!

You aren't too old to learn! This is a fine time to start, as you have more control over your movement than a 6-year-old... ;)
I suggest taking ballet for a year before starting tap/modern/jazz, anything else, to solidify the movements. Don't start pointe until your 4th year, at least. But other than that, go for it!!

No, I don't think thats too old, but you better get started soon!!

not at ll! No one is ever to old to dance or do whatever they want to do and that is actually really young

Nope, you are never too old to dance. It's great that you are interested!!

good luck my dear!

No way! For proffesional stuff, like for dancing for you'r career, it might be a little young unles you catch on really fast, but I think you should go for it! Tons of adults and stuff start cause they wanted to all their life, so 16 is even better :>
Dancing doesn't depend on age, it depends on flexibility and rhytm and how you move your body, all this stuff!

You are definitely not too old. Just because you haven't been dancing since you were 4 doesn't mean you can't become a great dancer. If you really want to do dance, then you should, no matter what age you are.

Age honestly doesn't matter when it comes to doing what you want to do. Especially dance

no. your not too old.
you can never be too old to dance.
my friend at the dance studio that i go to is 17.
and she came in at 15 with no dance experience what so ever.
and she is an amazing dancer.

go to classes you will be great you are never to old to start some thing new

DANCING HAS NO AGE!!!

U can never be 2 old to learn 2 dance

you're never too old to try something new and don't let anyone else tell you otherwise =)

best of luck!

No you are never to old to learn.. you could be 92 and just learning how to dance age doesn't matter!!!!!
