    i'm a 15-year-old guy and i recently started dancing. i'm 5'11", 180 lbs, one of the two only boys in the dance school, and certainly the least flexible one out of everyone. my first few classes were complete disasters but i'm slowly improving. the social aspect is definitely the most difficult since how girls socialize is nothing like how boys socialize but i'm slowly warming up to it. thanks for this guide!

    16 but i've been dancing since i was little. i used to dance with a studio but had to drop out at age 8 because of financial issues. things have gotten better and ive talked to my parents about dancing with a studio again. i've been dancing on my own since then but obviously my technique, flexibility, etc has taken a huge hit. this was a huge help at soothing my nerves before returning to a studio :3

      Hey guys, I'm 13 and started ballet, contemporary, jazz, acro, and contortion less than a year ago. I'm on a company team at a studio I love, and I've gotten a few skills that only a couple of dancers in my studio have. I just went for it and practiced daily. That's all you really need to do. Honestly, you just need to practice all day, every day. To be honest, it will hurt, and at times, you will want to quit, but it's worth it. Sorry for such a long comment, lol. My point is, just try it, and if you like it, don't give up. 🩰💃🤸‍♀️

    I have always wanted to be a ballerina but I am very tall, fat and was playing the violin (now the cello) and if you are a musician, you know that sports or dances (any physical hobbies instead of table tennis and swimming) are not allowed for me but I want it so badly. And I don't have any stuff for ballet and I know I can ot buy because if someone finds out my cello school career will be over. It is still an impossible dream for me (: I wish I could dance but I know I cannot. But watching those makes me feel happy... Maybe I can start one day..?

    I have never took a dance class but I don't know why I feel extremely passionate about ballet, not contemporary, not jazz, just ballet. I find peace in ballet music and my eyers are blessed every time I watch ballet dancers. I am heavily moved every time I watch ballet performers and aspire to become one--but for the longest time I just can't gather the courage since I think that at 14 it might be too late to start. I'm afraid that I won't be able to use the proper set of muscles that ballerinas learn to use starting out young. Or that I just can't be as talented as those who were taught much earlier. I'm willing to suffer a little bit but I don't know if ballet really is for me to learn, or maybe I should just be an audience.

      HIII!! I felt the same as you, I have always had that passion for ballet but I have never had the courage to actually do it for the same reasons. I am 15 years old and on the 9th I am starting ballet. It has been very difficult for me because I was afraid that it wasn't my thing or that people would judge me, but that doesn't matter when I am finally going to have the opportunity to do what I like, what I'm truly passionate about. I understand how it feels, but if you never try, you will spend the future regretting it. I encourage you to follow your dreams!! (Sorry if it's not spelled well, English is not my native language).
