I want to start dancing contemporary but...?

i have no idea where to start?


i don%26#039;t even know if i sound like a n00b by saying contemporary dancing. i%26#039;m only saying that because i%26#039;ve seen so you think you can dance and i think the contemporary dances are ahmazing and would love to be able to do stuff like that.


do you have to have some other form of dance background to start it? or do you just jump right in into a beginners class? like you would do ballet?





i%26#039;m also not too sure whether or not i%26#039;m too old to start. i%26#039;m 14 - 15 next month O.o or maybe even too young ._. i would hate to be both the oldest and the youngest. i%26#039;m pretty shy.


i%26#039;m also worried i%26#039;ll quit after a few lessons. i go through phases, i%26#039;ll admit. i%26#039;ve tried skateboarding, snowboarding, twin tip skiing, guitar playing, tons more. i%26#039;m pretty much all over the place. so is it any fun? i don%26#039;t want this to be one of those things i start and then quit after a few months.

Okay, there%26#039;s a difference between wanting to be able to do something and having a passion for it. I know plenty of people who dance just for fun-and that%26#039;s fine! But contemporary dance (at least the kind like on SYTYCD) takes a lot of feeling. Anyway, if you know of classes for lyrical or contemporary, you may be able to take a trial class to see if you like it or take it just for a summer. There are no %26quot;contemporary%26quot; classes near me, but there are modern dance classes. It really depends on where you live if you the opportunity to take a lyrical or contemporary class. I would recommend taking ballet, or you may be completely lost during the class.
