[quote=Anonymous]I just had a conversation last week with someone who was a serious dancer in high school, like I was. Both of us pretty much agreed that majoring in dance in college is a huge disservice to the student. If you aren't picked up by a company by 18/19, it is over.
If you like to dance, then continue taking classes at a local school. To blow 4 years of tuition and young adulthood on that is very sad. I was roommates with someone who did dance in college and she mightily regretted that all she could do for a living wage was temp work. Then there were the dance friends of the woman who runs the dance dept. at U. Of FL who complained that all anybody appreciated of them was baking ability / babysitting / admin work. 
Sorry, the idea that a dance major will be good at teaching dance isnt true. The best teachers had years of professional stage life. The college trained teachers would do the same exercise routines over and over again.
Do your kid favor and encourage endeavors that will actually feel productive for them. [/quote]
