Question
im 12 and have never dance in ballet but would like to start.I am not sure im am able.
Hi Britney. 12 is not too late to start ballet. Not at all....
It will be challenging - but get into a ballet class in a reputable studio and just start learning.
Anyone can learn ballet. If you want to become a professional ballerina, that is a huge challenge.
But start! There is no reason not to. Please feel free to ask more questions if you would like to.
All the best, Dianne

Expertise
I can answer questions about ballet positions, ballet movements and ballet technique, pointe shoes and pre pointe exercise, mens training, ballet diet, general health issues related to dance, artistry, performance, modern dance, rehabilitation from injuries, and teaching ballet. I have taught ballet, choreographed, produced and directed dance companies. For any answers related to health questions I will offer my experience, and give references to information, but I also automatically include "see a professional".
