Well do you like ballet and tights? Yes you do. You will never be to old to start but start now if it is somthing you would love to do go for it you are very flexible so go ahead! I want to go with gymnastics i am very flexible too. You i love flips and i can do the splits easy. So i am going to join gymnastics i really want it so i will do it i going to start because it is good exersise. For ballet i did that for 2 years (age 8 and 9) Then i got bored of it so i gave up and start focusing on school work and now i am ready for anything in my way! You can do whatever you want to do so go ahead and get going on it i know you can and maybe you will be pro soon good luck and remember you can do anything anytime you want to. Now talking about ballet what are you planning to do flexibility is great you have taekwondo already you are going to be very flexible so go and if you really like tights and leggings then go because ballet is perfect for you! If you really want it go for it and don't be scared of what others will say about you if they make fun o you they are jerks! I belive in you all the way! Goodluck?

the younger the better

It's never too late.

I'd say there's a different motivation, but chase your dreams, and chase 'em hard.

There's no reason not to study it for your own pleasure - there are beginner's classes for adults all over the place. It's too late for you to study it as a career though, I'm afraid.

Well it's never too late for anything!

Well, first change your name to Nancy, then buy a pink skirt. After that, you could get free lessons at:

If you want to you should, you can always pull out if you find you dislike it...

heelll yeah man. maybe u should start cross dressing too.

It just depends on why you want to do ballet. If it's just for a hobby then absolutely! All dancing helps with flexibility, coordination, grace, etc. Plus it's great exercise. I wouldn't keep your hopes too high about making a career out of it though :)

i think balet is gay for a guy.

There are a lot more excersices that will make a person flexible.

ballet needs your bodie's softness. so you must try hard .as sooner you start,it will help you better.i started it at 6,7 in our school but when i came to iran! everything finished...bad chanse of me!

if your soul is crying for ballet then do it! It can be a great experience. I say if you want to do it do it!!!

If you want too but i wouldnt recommend it if ur looking for a career because you have to be training your muscles from a very young age! but as a hobbie yes go for it!

yes!
ballet is lots of fun. it's never too late to learn, i only started when i was 14 and when i tell people i do ballet they are realy amazed but impressed. i wouldn't give it up for anything and encourage everyone to give it a go.

It's never too late to start ballet! Go ahead!

ya why not

why not?
what have you got to lose?

YES

Yes! You'll have fun but I doubt you will be able to do it professionally.

Well if your already flexible you shouldn't have a problem as long as you pick things up easily and take on what the teacher has said : ] good luck !
