<p>I agree boys do have it easier. However, I would not give up hope for a girl. My D had only very basic dance until she went to college and came out as a fairly decent dancer. Of course she could never catch up with the “dancers” who have been dancing for years. But she is at a level that she can audition for and has danced as part of dance ensemble. She tried taking dance when she was young but missed so much due shows and soccer that she always ended up dropping. She did take classes at our CC during the 2 summers before college, so she at least knew the basics for college auditions. She does pick dance up easily and is also a very hard worker. She danced a lot in college and took every class she could possibly fit in. I am amazed at her skills now. Granted she is first a singer/actor, but she can definitely hold her own in dance after 4 years in college!</p>
