It's not too late, but you won't be on pointe for at least 2-3 years after you start ballet. It's a very different feel than jazz and hip-hop, so be prepared for something different!

omg no not too late at all! hope you like it =]

Nope I dont think its too late.. some girls on my dance/drill team just started taking ballet, they are around 16.

at 13......Nothing is too late!!

First do ballet. I am not trying to hurt your feelings but it is hard and hurts like crap.( so does pointe) You have to do ballet first and your tap jazz and hip-hop will get soo much batter. It is never to late to accomplish all of your goals in life so keep on working hard!

It's never too late to start. I know someone who started doing ballet her junior year in high school and she went on to major in dance in college. Work hard and don't give up on your dreams. Good luck!

Absolutely not!

It will help you with your jazz, tap, and hip hop. It's the base for everything.

I'm a dance major in college, and many of the girls I go to school with didn't start ballet until college.

It will take a while to get to pointe though, so work on learning the basics of ballet first. You should take ballet for a few years before pointe.
