I always wanted to dance and ballroom since I was very young but my parents stomp that out and as I got older life got in the way. Now that my life has gave me time I want to do stuff I wanted to do when I was younger. Dance and ballroom is one of them.

But I also one of those people who need a goal to hit to keep going and all I can see is people aiming to compete as a goal.

I guess I want to ask is

is comp the only goal that dancers aim for?
am I too old to start?
if I am not too old what goals do people aim for to keep them going?

Is it worth starting to do ballroom at 39 yrs old?
