Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
It's difficult getting all the names and movements down when you first start!. Then you start trying to do them correctly, working to get stronger and more flexible, improving technique, developing your own style and stage presence, doing turns, leaps, etc!. The more you work at ballet, the more you start to understand how hard it really is!. IT's difficult to explain to someone who doesn't dance, but even the prima ballerina of the NYCB has SOMETHING to work on and improve!. You're always fighting for perfection, which you will never reach!.

Aside from that, dancing is extremely rewarding, will help imrove your strength, coordination, flexilility, balance, confidence, discipline, and understanding of how the body works!. I can't imagine my life without it, and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good challenge!.

As for wearing a bra under a leotard, unless you're REALLY big chested, the leotard will provide ample support!. They usually have shelf bras or even more support, depending on which one you get!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Ballet is very hard!.

Most people I know who take it HATE it!.

Of cource, but would suggest a sports bra!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

ballet is very difficult!.
especially the older you are going into it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yupp you can wear bras under your leotard!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. start off in a beginning class!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. it guess harder abut if you start out easy you will get it!. make sure you follow you instructor cuz u need to have the right form!.!.!.!.!. ballets sometimes seems boring but it can be fun i started to like it just last year because of my one teacher and studio!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Ballet certainly isn't going to be easy, or else everyone would do it!.

I am not sure if starting younger would necessarily make you better!. It might, but if you started at 7 years old, hated it and quit, you wouldn't be doing ballet at all now!.

I think you should be focusing on where you want to go and what you want to do in ballet!. In a disciplined art such as ballet, you should not be worrying about if it is hard to learn or not!.

There is only one way to find out if it is too hard for you or not, so if you really are interested in it, I would suggest you start and see where it takes you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The basic moves aren't hard, but it is difficult to have really good technique!.
Advice!? Feel confident, stand up straight and tall, but don't arch your back!. stick ur but in, and pay attention!. also, some teachers may try to turn ur feet out too much, If they do that, and it hurts don't let them!. Fix ur feet so u r comfortable, u don't want to mess up ur legs!.
Yes, u can wear a bra under leotards!. but I usually wear a tank top over my leotard too, because it covers the bra straps!. If the school u dance at has a dress code, make sure u get a tank top that is the right color!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It depends on you if you would like to wear a bra(i recommend a sports bra)!. And i love ballet! i don't find it hard at all!. It depends how really determined you are and how much practice you do!. Well, Good Luck!!! =DWww@QuestionHome@Com
