Which is better? Ballet or Jazz?

Question

I've been doing jazz for about 2 years.. I'm alright with it. 2 years after that I decided to do hip hop. It's not that I wasn't interested in Jazz anymore.

I'm not very good with hip hop because your movement has to be big and you have to be really quick. So now I'm going onto my 4th year and I have decided to no longer continue with hip hop classes.

There was always something about ballet that interested me. It's probably because it is so graceful and I like tutu's.. (hehe)

I like Jazz but what if ballet becomes too hard? I can't do the splits or anything..

Which class should I take? (I have to pay money so yeah)

Answer 1

Ballet!

It's way better than any other exercise!

You could take a ballet class and a jazz class but if you're only taking one, take ballet.

Most studios don't let you take any other class if you don't take ballet.

It's the center of dance.

Trust me.

You'll get hot legs... it's amazing.

Don't worry about your slits. that'll change soon.

It's really hard to get started but you'll get used to it. trust me.

do ballet.

It's way better for you anyways.

Answer 2

I take both. But I think that ballet is better. I mean, yeah there are more rules, but it is so classical and graceful. Anyone can do it. It's not hard. I like Jazz too, but I kind of have to take it since i am on the company team. I really love ballet. I mean, i have the typical pink ballet tutu and i wear it around the house. I love it so much. Besides, you get to act snooty. haha. tutus all the way!

Answer 3

first of all, stick to one dance and complete it.

as for the question, no doubt ballet is better. it is a very beautiful dance form. elegent, graceful and awesome....

not that jazz is bad or something like that ....

*what you should do is first complete all jazz lessons (with the splits and all the stuff you are facing difficulty in) ...

if you're done with it, go for ballet....(its not so tough, just needs more practice and dedication)

Answer 4

take a sample class and see if you like it also just start with a beginers class and work your way up because theres no point in throwing yourself in at the deep end and struggling and if you dont like i go back to jazz

dance is meant to be fun enjoy it!

Answer 5

BALLET :D :D :D

Answer 6

ballet is really good! its so easy to enjoy! i'm sure if you join and if you enjoy it you'll continue on with it! as you progress in danceing you will become more flexible, so you'll soon be able to do the splits, so you don't need to worry about that! i think you should take beginners class, just to learn thhe basics.. good luck!

Answer 7

Ballet is better because it gives you wonderful all-around training, which can later be applied to other forms of dance that you may learn (jazz included).

Ballet will also increase your overall strength and flexibility more quickly than any other dance form.

Answer 8

Answer 9

it all depends if you want upbeat and theatrical or slow and gracful

you do splits in both so it doesnt matter  you will get them.

i take both so i no what its like   i like both of them  yourlegs burn alot in ballet and jazz gets your heart pumping! so its your choise!

Answer 10

Ballet is the best I love it Ballet is my life I could not live without ballet so Ballet is the best =^..^=

Answer 11

ballet doesn't require you to really do the splitz....that's actually more used in jazz, but ballet is really graceful and it takes your mind off of everything else that's going around you so you can actually have some time to relax and enjoy yourself
