can you tell us the exact name of the music piece? cuz there are sooo many !

[sunyalila]

I think it is the first track called "Plies" on Michael Roberts'

"Between the Barres" cd. That cd is a compilation of several of the

earlier albums of his music for ballet class, and you can buy it

through amazon

[sunyalila]

The music is by Michael Roberts. He has a few cd's out for ballet classes.

Many professional dancers started training very young - but more and more are starting later who also have been able to dance professionally or perform. It is a very yout- oriented profession, but that does not mean that one "sucks at it" if they start later. I have worked with adults who are just starting out who progress and dance beautifully. Do not let yourself fall into limiting beliefs about yourself and others with regard to age, or anything else. It is never too learn.

It is never too late to learn or dance for the pure joy of dancing. Go for it Vampiricrockstar!

I love seeing young ballet dancers, they have so much of life yet to live.

@MsBallerinaful Er... I'm 15, not even on ballet for 4 months or something, and I'm allready on pointe. And I know that dancing on pointes is not really a sign you're good, but it's just a example that you don't have to suck when you start ballet at a later age... The only thing that kept me bothering was I had to dance twice more than the other girls, 'cause I started so late. But I wanted to do, and look where I am now...

My ballet teacher was 14 when he started ballet. & He's now a professional dance teacher. If you wanna start ballet now go for it. They have beginner teen classes :)
