Am i too late to start taking ballet lessons?

im 14 yrs old, and ive been taking dance lessons (which includes modern, jazz, ballroom dancing, and a bit of ballet) for about a year, but ive always loved ballet and i want to start taking proper ballet lessons. am i too late to start, though, because it always seems that real dancers started their lessons when they were very young

You are never too old to take ballet. Now if you are asking whether its too late for a possible career in ballet the answer is maybe. You will have to have TONS of talent, a fantastic teacher, a great school and a lot of determination because competition for female ballet jobs is intense. Good Luck

You're never too old to start doing anything!!! Go for it!
If you're pretty good at jazz, it'll be easy to catch onto ballet...you just have to be flexible! Don't worry if you didn't taken proper lessons when you were young. If you want to take up ballet and probably continue it as maybe a coureer or anything like that, make sure you have the muscels in your legs, because when it comes to ballet, you need the muscels so you can do all the turns, jumps etc.
Never to late to experience something have a passion for. That right there is a head start. If you don't do it now, you may later have regrets. I should had, what if, if only and so on.

If you wish to perform in theatrics, especially musicals or dance concerts ballet training is a much. Most professional actresses/actors, performers on Broadway and of course dancers studied ballot.

Ballet teaches and develops various techniques in the performing arena such body alignment, placement, systematize body counts, poise and much more. Did you know that most different forms of dance movement deviated from ballet. If you want to be a good/great dancer you need ballet training to develop basic dance techniques.
No you are enough young to start dance maybe you won't be at prima ballerina at one of the greates ballet companies BUT you can joint to a professional local ballet company and perform at pro level cause you are young and flexible for that, I suggest you to find one or some professional ballet companies in your town or near your town that offer ballet lessons, they are usually the best and you'll have the chance to joint , if you work hard as I am sure you'll do it, to their ballet young company.. JUST DO I T AND ENJOY BALLET I am sure you'll succeed!!
it's never too late
i am 18 and ijust started ballet again. My classes when i was younger were not 'proper' ballet classes. Yes we learned everything but we mainly concentrated on our dance for the end of year recital. This year, i started at a new studio. It is a 'proper' balet class.

It is never too late to start what you already want to do.
You can be good at anything if you love it. I have been taking dance class since I was eight and I am better then some of the people who have been taking it since they were three. So it doesn't matter which age you start as long as you are a deticated dancer then you will be great. Good luck!
Of course not! I started when I was 12 and I was on pointe the next year!
na! no one's ever too late to learn ANYTHING. and yea, thanks, u answered that question of mine, you know, about my crush...thanks!!
