I started dancing ballroom dances at age of 13. I have been dancing for 4 years. I dance in a small group of 5 students about my age with a wonderful teacher, 2 hours a week. In addition, I also practice at home, several hours a week. However, I am a shy person (but my confidance is improving) and I am not so flexible (I feel my techinc is very good but there are things I cannot do- a split, for example). I have never been to a competition but I have already performed several times.

Will I be able to reach the level of the dancers who started to dance at age of 6\7\8? (My dream is participate in ''Dancing with the stars"...).

Thanks in advance,
Daniel

Daniel, as a dance teacher/coach, you are on the right path to achieve your goals ( and beyond, if you wish ).

Daniel, speaking as another dance teacher, judge and coach 13 is not to late. You can definitely achieve your goals. I have taught some great dancers who started at 15. Go for it and good luck!
