Many children dream of being a ballerina. Chin raised with purpose, arms high above head, they twirl clumsily around the living room and leap tirelessly in the air. Sooner or later they're bound to say, ""I want to dance."" Now what do you do? How do you know if the time is right? Where's the best place to start?
