There are no age limits to start Ballet as each studio differs but it is best not to start too early, six is a good age to start at if you want to be a professional ballerina

How do you become a ballerina?

You have to lake lessons, studio or private lessons (recommended for best learning) You have to train HARD, about and hour a day if you want to be sucessful. Usually the ballerinas today started when they were very young (For best results start between the ages 3-8). You have to try your best to never take a break or miss a practice, everything counts! When you are older (18+) hopefully you have practiced Ballet for a minimum of 8 yrs. you must get discovered by signing up with a Ballet Company (example: American Ballet Theatre), you may be turned down but never lose hope, come back in a few months and try again, they will be convinced sooner or later! You will start with being in the "Corps de Ballet" Background dancers (Do some research for more info). The Ballerina is the main dancer and center of attention, so you have to go through about 2-3 levels in skill. Hope that answers your question, if you have a dream to become a Ballerina one day-- I hope you try your best!


Is 12 too late to start ballet and become a prima ballerina later?

NO! It's never too late to start dancing! 12 is actually young compared to some prima ballerinas, believe it or not! If you are trying to go pro though, make sure you can go to a good school that can get you up to par in the dancing world. GOOD LUCK!
