Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

I started ballet at the age of 16!.!.!.my dance instructor first put me in a basic class, then when she saw my potential, she put me in a more intensive class!.!.!.Ballet can be pretty intensive but you can begin at any age!. Here's my advice: stretch ALOT, get into shape because it would be a real shame if you couldn't go far into your ballet career just because it requires endurance you don't have!. Good luck!! Ballet is a beautiful art!.!.!.GO FOR IT!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

NFW ! In fact you may be ahead of the game in that your body has nearly matured and you won't face the potential pratfalls of prepubescent girls!. If you have some talent intense practice will take you a long way! Remember, what Thomas Alva Edison said; genius is 1% inspiration, 99% perspiration!. You go Ashley!. !. !. and dance!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Absolutely not!. I have had a number of older dance students and have danced with many myself!. You usually have a choice of whether you want to dance with younger students or many studios have adult ballet classes!. Good luck :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

no but you may need to work harder then a 6 year old would to get your muscles doing what you want them to do!. i would just say don't get frustrated!. It will be easiest to start if you are more in shape!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
