[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Switch your schedule so she can continue to progress where she us at. Dancers tend to bloom best where they are 1st planted.[/quote] This just is not accurate because ballet skills are highly transferrable to other dance forms. Taking ballet can make it easier to learn tap or jazz later but the reverse is not necessarily true. I always recommend a kid interested in dance start with at least a couple years of ballet before specializing in anything else. Fine to take tap or jazz concurrently with ballet but I would never skip the ballet basics.[/quote]
