I am really interested in starting dance lessons. My only concerns are that I would be in classes with, like, 8 year olds. And also that me starting dance now would be pointless, because I wouldn’t be good enough at it to continue in college.
What do you think?
Of course you should start taking dance lessons if you want to
at most studios you will be enrolled in a beginner’s open teen or adult class but you should probably check with the studio before you go to the class. firstly many colleges offer dance classes as an elective/supplement and nothing major- just something that meets once a week or something. so you could continue it in college.
At some studios, you would be in a class with 8 year olds, but you should be able to find one that has beginner classes for people your age and I definitely recommend that. If you want to do it though, and you’re willing to invest the time, energy, and money, then it wouldn’t be a waste of time. Also, you don’t have to be any "good" to continue in college. I know some dance majors who never danced a day in their lives before they started college.

You can take beginer classes at a near by community college and you get school credits out of it too!

You can take a few classes, but not too many cause you’re not advanced…and you won’t be keeping it up very long.
In some studios, you will be in very young classes.
But if you want to take it as a good exercise that’s a good idea.

Dance your heart out! If you want to go for it!!!! Find a place where they offer beginning adult classes, and then you might be the youngest one in your class. And if you work hard, you might be good enough to do it in college. Give it a try!
