Ballet

Not sure if this belongs here, but is 15 too old to start ballet?? Not as a career, more so just to get more active and ideally distract myself from the horrors of the world.

But I am super duper unfit, non-flexible and have tried nothing like this before. The only other club I've joined that's semi related is Scottish dancing because it was pretty chill.

Thoughts? Experience?

Hiya!

Hey, it's never to late to start or learn anything new! Life is all about learning no matter what age you! Haha! I'm nearly 40 and looking back on missed opportunities! So you grab life by the hornets dear, and enjoy every single second of it! take a few risks and get your blood pumping! I say that in a risk assessment way!

Have fun!

Take care 🙂

I know of ballet classes for adults starting ballet and some adults who have taken them.

You're not too old to start ballet! I hope you have a wonderful time learning it!

@RandomCitizen It sounds like dance can be quite relaxing for you and ballet would be awesome addition to this. I think with anything that is new we can always think of 1001 reasons not do anything.... but my experience is once we try we only then know whether it is for us or not. Good luck and keep us updated :)

I started ballet at 14. It totally was not too late! I have been taking it for 3 1/2 years now and love it so much. smiley It's my only dance class, just one hour a week and I work really, really hard, which has brought really good results. smiley If you have a passion for ballet, go for it!
