Eleven is definitely not too old to start figure skating. There are several elite competitive figure skaters that have started at age 9-12 years old. Johnny Weir began figure skating at age 12. He is 3 time US national champion, 2001 World Junior Champion, 2008 World bronze medallist, and placed fifth at the 2006 Olympic Winter Games. read more at http:/www.gofigureskating.com/intro/startfigureskating.html
