A) NO, you can come in when your younger then 40 and do it don't worry.
B)YES it is hard, but that only has to do with muscle and coordination.
C)Instead of websites, try some local dance studios and ask them. I think that's what my mom did and now I'm in competitive.If you still want some there down there ll

to tell you the truth, as long as you try in the activity/sport
you'll do fine.

you dont have to be young, you can be any age. trying calling or having a look at some dance/ballet schools in your area. they should be able to give you some info on how you can start out

your sometimes born with it,
and if you are you can start in a later age.
But if you have difficulties in your body,
then you should probably try adjusting to it in an earlier age

To go professional; yes you do. But for fun and as a hobby you can start at any age :)

Ballet is hard. It makes you use every single muscle in your body but you have to make it look graceful and beautiful. And that's the easiest bit; technique is tricky and when it comes to jumps and turns aahhh! But its still all good fun :)

Hope this helps! Good Luck

You can start ballet at any age. Nearly all professional ballerinas started before they were 10. Danseurs can start a bit later.
Starting ballet will cause some muscle aches and pains along with stretching etc. Discomfort is manageable.
Instead of websites, check out your local dance studio if there are any and sign up for a teen/beginners class. Good Luck

no you dont have to start out young to do ballet! i just stareted and i am 13 years old! of cource you will be i a smaller grade with smaller kids.. as long as you reely want to do it than thay should motivate you enough! Ballet is the hardest ganre of dance because you are always constanlty using alll of your mucshules at ounce! u always have to keep your hips/elbos down and ur thumbs back and toes out! althouhg it taked A LOT of consentration u can do it if you reely put ur mind to it! i dont kno any web sites but try :ROYAL ACDAMY OF DANCE.. it is a reeely good dance school!
