Why are there are number of males in hiphop dancing and less ii ballet?

well with ballet you should start before you 20. And boys are put off by tutus and things like that when they are young. So by the time they are 20 and realise that ballet is not JUST for girls then they willl consider it. But they probably won't become a pro since they are quite old. BUt they might!


Where can you get free ballet lessons?

Yeah... you really cant get free ballet lessons unless you know someone who teaches ballet. youtube and other online video sites have some pretty informative stuff for beginners though. even though professional lessons from a trained ballet dancer aren't usually that expensive for beginners anyway. its usually when you get to advanced ballet like pointe when you need to buy special shoes and then if you are good enough to participate in a recital then you would have to pay for any costumes. i hope I've been some help. peace. p.s. if you lived in south Florida. i could give ballet lessons for a small price like $10-20 a lesson. i could also recommend some of my former companies that taught me well.
