I started in my midtwenties and danced professionally for 30 yrs., and taught for 25 yrs. You need to work hard, with a good teacher, and it is possible. You can't rush it. You have to acquire the strength and technique necessary for pointe and that takes time. So work hard - and you will do it. Lots of luck! Basheva >I started dancing at age twelve and am thirteen and I have taken ballet and jazz for a year. I am caught up with my age group in jazz but not in ballet because everyone is on point already and I am not. I try really hard and my teacher says I'm doing really good. But, I probably won't go on point until I'm fifteen. I really want to be a dance teacher or in a profesional dancing group but I don't know if that's possible beacuse I started later then most people do. Is it possible? Has anyone else started at my age and became a teacher or pro dancer? Answers to this message: |
