Does anyone else take ballet and martial arts at the same time?

I don't. But I find that dance and martial arts are actually very similar when it comes to the tricks. Like Ariels, 540's, butterfly twists (in dance its called flying fruit bats) etc.

I think both of the styles compliment each other beautifully and if I had the opportunity to take up Martial Arts I would do it in a heartbeat :)

I knew a girl who did gymnastics and martial arts

not me.
but I do know someone who does.
I'm a martial artist, but ballet has never exactly been my thing.

If that's what you want to do, then do it! Also, the dicipline of both, and the stretching exercises of both, can help both arts, and compliment your strengths. Enjoy!

I was, but I had to chose one- I couldn't afford them both (I chose dance)! The college I'm going to next year has a martial arts club, which sounds awesome! I'm also trying out for the dance team in two weeks... So wish me luck everyone!

I think that people with multiple interests turn out to be very well rounded and it's always good to have multiple talents!

Not sure about ballet but I dance and do martial arts at the same time! It's the most awesome combo! Both compliment each other incredibly and I love enjoy doing both.
Right now I practice hip hop style dance with my friends. For martial arts I do Taekwondo and Jeet Kune Do XD

used to do karate, now teach argentine tango and salsa, they both require good control of your body position.
