[quote=Anonymous]Great thread.  My DD is 8 and just started the competitive side of dance (studio also only does 2 competitions).  My 2 nieces both dance(d).  One stopped after 3 years in 7th grade.  She went on to do theater since it was more balanced with her interests of singing and dance.  She does art and track and field.  My other niece is a junior in HS and has been dancing since as long as I can remember.  She does cheer and track and field in school.  The balance is hard because dance classes can be on Friday night and what 15-16 yr old wants to miss out on hanging out on a Fri night.  I think she's committed until she graduates as she wants the "senior solo" next year.   She's extremely good at dance and has always been.  I do think it's gotten harder since she started menstrating and her body isn't as lean as it once was (she has always been tall and lanky but now has the hips, etc).  Dance has been great exercise for both girls.   I'll be interested to see how long my daughter wants to stay as she loves it now.  She did soccer at one point but truly loved doing dance more.
