hello(:

i think that you could consinder taking ballet classes at Singapore Ballet Academy, at fort canning hill. They have adult ballet classes which have students around your age, till 50+!!! Most of the students in the adult ballet class are actually in their teens and like you, do not have any classical ballet background. I am sure that you will fit in perfectly there(:

i have attached a website which gives more details about sba!

all the best!!! follow your dreams(:

To perform the more demanding routines, a ballet dancer must appear to defy gravity while working within its constraints. Basic physics and the science of human perception provide insight into how this is accomplished.

Ballet dance, like the grand jet茅, the dancer may appear to hover. Physically, his/her center of mass describes a parabola, as does a ball, when thrown (or, indeed, any object when in flight and acted upon by only the gravitational force alone). However, advantage is taken of the limitation in the human ability to reckon center of mass when a projectile changes its configuration in flight. When leaping, the dancer extends the arms and legs and lowers the head relative to the body. The manoeuvre camouflages the fall and leads the audience to perceive the dancer is floating. A Pas de Chat (step of the cat) creates a similar illusion. The dancer starts from a pli茅, then during the ascending phase of the step, successively lifts and rotates each shin outward with hips turned out,as all steps in ballet must be unless dancing character(ethnic) steps or freemovement. For a moment, the dancer appears suspended in air.

What i feel ur age is right age to follow and easy to dance and i don't know why ur peoples are not allowing u

better u consult in 3 or more places defenetly u find

The fall must be performed carefully. The laws of physics decree that momentum must be dissipated but a crash landing would destroy the impression of airiness and likely injure the dancer. Part of the solution is a floor designed to absorb shock. The dancer also bends at the knees and rolls the foot from toe to heel. For artistic as well as safety reasons this technique must be taught by a qualified instructor.

Depending on where the dancer places his or her arms and legs, the dancer can make them look longer or shorter depending on their preference. By placing them farther behind the body it creates the illusion of shorter arms or legs, and by moving them forward, longer.
the ymca has an adult ballet class and so does jitterbugs singapore
go for it you would have fun do it dont care what other friends think.
aww.. well i started when I was 12, and I am doing fine now... hope you can find something, i am sure you would love it!
omg i know how you feel. when i was eleven i fell in love with ballet and my dad looked around for a dance teacher for me...and then when the teacher found out my age (which was thirteen by then) he wouldn't take me for a student. i was so upset. after that i had to wait five years before i took up ballet. the reason why? cause college classes don't care what age you are.

my advice to you is to look for a private teacher or keep searching for classes that will take you. if you try hard enough you will start to dance soon enough...instead of like me who had to wait five years. good luck :).
