I’m 15 and now just thinking to get into the dance world. I’ve gotten into it from a friend who is most likely going to be famous someday and she also wants me to learn how to dance so that she can learn to dance with a partner. At the moment i can only afford to join in on her conditioning class while the rest are out of my price range. Now that i have the background out of the way, onto the question.

My main interest is Ballroom/Latin, we’ve somewhat found a place that has cheap lessons for that but i want to know what are my chances of getting serious and good at it at this age. For both me and my friend our goal is to get onto So You Think You Can Dance. She is making it for sure, and I’m struggling to find ways to get better. Ballroom/Latin seems like a good way to get the sexual emotion (and maybe some others) into the dance and i also want to learn to dance with someone else. The steps seem like a good way to learn movements and lifts could help my strength.

This is a very open question but does anyone have any advice for any of this? I’m so ridiculously lost and due to the lack of money for classes it seems like a lost hope.

I live in Western Washington if anyone knows anything in that area
