Expert: Meridyth Kues Date: 6/10/2007 Subject: Too "old" to take up dancing?
Question Are there any types of dance where a person is considered
"too old" to start? I'm thinking of taking up either Irish tap dancing (after watching Riverdance), tap, or Jazz dancing. The only thing is, I'm 33 years old and have never had any dancing experience. Would I be considered too "old" to start?
Answer You are NEVER too old to start dancing. Tap is one of the most popular dance forms to be picked up at a later age in life. Jazz is great for flexibility and strength, & tap helps coordination & builds muscle. Good Luck in your future endeavor and thanks for the question!
