Ballet Lessons
Hi,
I am 17f. I have always loved ballet, but I have never had dance lessons.. and I was wondering if it is ever too late to try and learn ballet.?.. I know it (seems to be) one of the more complicated dances to learn. I have heard you should take lessons from someone who is trained so you can learn properly. I am willing to put all that I can into it if I could find a good studio near me in Canada and if it is an affordable cost. Are lessons really expensive? What do I need to know the most? and where do I begin?
Ballet is what I want to learn most <3 Please tell me all you know about this wonderful art!

Ballet is definately still learn-able at your age! Realize though, that by age 17, many girls have already been through the "make it or break it" stage in their professional careers. Im not sure how else to put it. But no worries, its not like you are trying to become a professional, but I just wanted to throw that out there.
It is imperative that you take lessons from somone who is well-trained. I took lessons from a woman who taught me a few things all wrong, and it really screwed be up later. So just find a studio with teachers that have alot of professional experience under their belts.
The lessons I take are not too expensive, They are about $150 dollars per semester per class which ends up to be less than $10 per lesson. (But this is in American Dollars, and I know things are much more expensive in Canada!)
So what I would do is just look "dance studio" up in the phone book, pick one that is near your house and has a reasonable fee and trained teachers, and call them up. Tell them that you are seventeen with no experience and you want to start ballet. To give you a fair warning, you might be in a class with a bunch of 9-yr olds. On the other hand, my ballet studio offers a class called "Ballet for beginner adults", Which my mom took while I took higher levels for kids. Also, you are old enough probably to take the beginners adult class because I took "Tap dance for beginner adults" when I was 13. So whatever you prefer.
I wish you good luck and dont chicken out! Ballet is such a beautiful art, you will not regret learning it!
