please i need an answer

Answers:

I would not suggest that you do Ballet at anytime. Ballet is very hard on the knee's even for someone with healthy knees it can cause very serious knee problems. If you do have therapy or do exercises I could see you going to tap as long as you doing go crazy or do it super intensely.
-Good luck with dancing!



i would say yes but make sure you don't overwork your Stealth witch if you do you may damage some knee mussels in your knee
