who is 75 has recently taken up tap dancing, and she's having a blast. It's never, ever too old to take up something for fun. Whether it will help in a career is something I don't know.

Whether it's travel, dance, jobs, instruments, writing, artwork... no matter what... listen to it and go for it! Otherwise you'll be left with a list of regrets. :) Trust me... *nods knowingly*
I've been a "go for it" person and I have never been upset that I tried and maybe didn't have it turn out the way I wanted; but I still feel worse about the things I wanted to do but haven't... yet. ;)

I took ballet from about 9 years old to 18. I loved it and was told I was good but because I'm short I could never become a professional. The whole experience has enriched my life in many ways. I was never good in sports but this was something I was good at and it made me feel good about myself. To this day I love to dance & enjoy taking Jazzercise classes. I also taught aerobics classes in my twenties and thirties which I really enjoyed.
Never too old...I returned to ballet

in my early 30's after many MANY years away. It had been so long that I was essentially a beginner again, and it was lovely.
Go for it. I'm an amateur actor, and the classes will be a benefit for you. One thing I find is that learning to quickly hear, process, pick up, and then execute a combination, as you do in dance class, is a very useful skill in auditions where dance is required.
