I'm 13 and I would really like to consider a career as a ballerina. I was wondering, do I have a chance? My experience level is: Age 5-ballet class for I year, 1 class/week> Age 6-8 ballet classes at a really bad community center, 1 class/week> Age 8-10 various dance classes at a really bad community center, 1 class/week> Age 11 ballet class for I year at advanced level, 1 class/week>Those really bad community center classes mean that the teacher didn't teacher well, like the teacher isn't a professional at it. Also I never really took dance (incl. ballet) classes during the summer. I'm not really flexible anymore, but I do have a good turnout, althought I'm most definatly not on pointe yet. I took a ballet camp last year, and my teacher said I was really talented. But if I consider a career in ballet, what kind of training should I get? Like how many hours a week should I take lessons? Should I consider private lessons? Any most importantly, do I have a chance? Answers to this message:
