I have tapped for 4 years but never done ballet. I take modern dance at school, but I am really yearning to do ballet. i don't have very strong ankles and kind of flat feet. Do you think it is still possible for me to be a ballerina or is it worthless? I just need advie from somebody. I didn't start ballet till I was 17, I'm 5'10" and a runner ... all bad ingredients for a ballet dancer. However, 5 years later I'm still dancing. It's going to be harder for you than the bendy little 6-year-olds, but I love it, and have actually quit singing and acting since I started in order to focus on dance (I study modern and jazz as well). Go for it, and good luck! Answers to this message:
