Question
I AM 19 YEARS OLD, I DID SOME BALLET FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS BUT I STOPPED, NOW I WANT TO GET BACK INTO ITBUT ITS REALLY HARD. I REALLY WANT TO TRAIN AGAIN, WHERE CAN I GO?

Answer
I started again, like you, when I was 19. I found class at the university I was attending at the time.... they had a dance program.

You might also try junior or community colleges in your area

Most larger dance studios in your area will probably also have adult classes available. It would be best just to call around and ask.

good luck!

Expertise

I have knowledge of and access to information about ballet technique and style, professional companies, ballet history, general care of the body, questions about dance education and studios, and other general topics. I can especially offer advice to adult beginners. I will not answer any questions that would be better left to a medical professional.

Experience

I have not danced professionally, but I am a dedicated student of ballet and modern dance. I have taken classes in dance history, performed in amateur productions, attended professional performances, and read and watched many books and videos on the subject. I have also reviewed ballet performances for an online publication.
