written by Dancing Fool on 16.01. at 03:10:53 - as answer to: 50 year old beginner by David I started taking ballet for the first time almost exactly one year ago, when I was 46. Several years earlier I had smooshed my left knee in a hiking accident, so my ability to execute certain ballet positions is curtailed. Also, I have a spinal curvature. Ballet has helped tremendously with flexibility and posture, but, above all, it is deeply satisfying to dance. As for being 50, another fellow in one of my classes is 50 and took his first class last July. After just five months of twice-weekly classes, he landed roles in one of the local productions of the Nutcracker in December. Answers to this message: |
