Question: Do you think i should take up ballet !?
I took up ballet when I was 4 for about a year!. Then I stopped completely!. I want to take up ballet again beacuse I want to have an extracurricular activity!. But now that i'm 14, i'm afraid that i'll be put in a class with kids younger than me!. I forgot all the positions in ballet and i have to start all over again!. I also don't want to waste my parent's money on ballet lessons beacuse i know i most likely won't take up ballet professionally in the future & especially since ballet lessons are so expensive now a days!. Do you think it's advisable for me to take up ballet even though i'm 14 already & I most likely won't be taking it up professionally!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

yes, i know i don't plan on taking it professionally, and I still take it!. Go for it, and it doesn't matter if you're put in a class with younger kids, you took a choice, and you have to start over again!. Maybe you can see if a studio near you has a "teen beginner" class, that should really help!. Good luck!. =)Www@QuestionHome@Com
It is unlikely--though not impossible that you will be able to take up ballet proffesionally!.
Ballet is awsum and you could definatly take it up
TBH it would be better for you to go into grade 1
I hate it when people in my class come in with no experiance( im grade 6 ballet) and they find it to hard and it's not good for themWww@QuestionHome@Com
Do it! I have been dancing since I was 2, now I'm 14!. But I have seen many beginners who are in their teens and you can take an adult beginner ballet class!. They almost always let ages 12 and above join the adult's beginner class!.
btw, I don't want to dance pro eather!. I just like to do it as a hobby!. I don't like competitive sports much, so I stick to dance and figure skating!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
it sounds like your only doing it so you have an extra circul activity !.it would be a waste of money when you could do somthing alot cheeper and you dont want to be put in a class of little kids when this is what will happen only do it if you love itWww@QuestionHome@Com
ballet can benefit everyone if you enjoy dancing or not!. even if you dont want to persue it proffessionally than it can still help you!. I makes you a more graceful person which is very attractive!. also you learn self discipline!. its also great excersize!. so why not!? i say go for it!. :)Www@QuestionHome@Com
