No, it's not to late to begin dancing. There are people who start dancing even later than you do. Part of learning to dance comes the benefit of becoming more and more flexible. I know when I first started dancing way back (actually, not too many years ago!) at age 11, I was very inflexible. I now have all three of my splits and can do wondrous things. :D

Just practice, stretch, and have fun! You'll be more flexible before you know it!

No, it isn't too late to begin and yes, you can become flexible. You can help yourself by taking a few yoga classes as well, because that also works on flexibility.

I don't really think that its too late, and well you can become flexible more but it depends how much you practice.

okay im not a dancer but im a gymnast i started late. im 13 now and im really good. i think its never too late to start. hey if your not flexible you can start now. all you need to do it strech. everyday!. if you wanna get your splits heres what you need to do...
okay so get in your split and flex up the muscle in your leg and hold it for 10 seconds then relax. everytime you do that youll go lower and lower but thats just for splits.

Good luck. hope everything goes well.

well i started at 13 and i can do my left and right splits so no i don't think it to be to late and yes you can become flexible if you stretch properly. remember that if you stretch after you have warmed up you will not injure yourself. i have 4 more years until i get to pointe shoes. yep you can do it just try your hardest

flexibility has no effect on talent.

there are prefessional dancers with worse turnout than someone who hasnt a clue what dance is that are making it HUGE in the dance world.

dont judge dancing by how high someone kicks their leg.

dance is an art, for the purpose of expression.

if you want to start dancing,
learn what youre getting into.

as far as it being too late to learn to dance - never.
and if you want to become flexible, you can stretch every night.

but know from the start that dancing and felxibility are
NOT the same thing.

if thats what you want, go be a gymnast.

its not too late. i'm 15 and i'm just starting ballet. u may have to practise your flexibility with pilates/ yoga, or u could ask your teacher to show you some exercises 2 improve your flexibity....anyway, u can become flexible..no doubt u'll hav 2 work hard, nt it'll b worth it. All da best 2 u. i hope you enjoy it.

No it's not to late!! Yes you can become flexible if you work at it everyday.

depends on what type of dancing u want to do

it is better yes if u start earlier but it doesnt matter i dnt think

eg. irish dancing and ballet you need to start early!!!!
