I started when I was in 7th grade and when I got into 9th grade I got pulled up into a high school Team and I am now going into high school. You are never to old to start gymnastics and people may have more experience then you but you have to remember they could have been in it since they were little. When I joined everyone was WAY better than me and all I could do was try. If you put forth the effort you will be able to do a lot. Just remember you are never too old to start gymnastics and with time and effort you can get as good as the other people.
OF COURSE NOT!!! If it's something you love, then go for it!! Maybe a little late for Olympic or competition level but for fun and to be able to do some tricks? Dot worry about it. And if there's someone more advance then you, then be happy about it cause if you can't do something and you want help you can watch them or ask them. Look at the big picture. When your maybe 16, 17, being able to do super back twisty double flip thingys, won't you be gla you joined? And how many times are you going to be young? Once. So take the opportunity you have and go for it!
I started when I was 30.
for competition yes you are too old. but if it's for fun then no
