I am 16 and a half and want to do gymnastics again. I did it when I was younger, but had to stop. I now want to get back into it, but I think I am to old. I can do the basics, such as cartwheels, backbends, front walkovers, round offs, etc. I am short about 4'11 and I am willing to work hard. I know I don't have a chance at Olympics or anything, but I enjoy learning. Do you think I'm too old to try. Thanks

you are never too old! I say do it! I LOVE gymnastics but sadly at just 13 years old my neck is bad shape- filled with knots and messed up and causes excruciating pain. but I say do it!

You should totally do it. I started gymnastics at 17. You're never too old. A lot of places offer adult gymnastics so you can continue doing gymnastics once you're over 18. Sign up for a beginner class. Some places even offer teen classes or high school aged classes.

Oh no no NO! I started gymnastics at a very young age. 2 or 3 but I quit right after I turned 4. I missed gymnastics soo much but I started asking myself the same question you're asking at your age! But anyways, I started back and man, it felt great! Yes, it is a lot of hard work, especially when you start back a little bit later but the teachers help you through everything, so whatever you want to do, scorpions, whatever, you can do it. :)

hey,It is never too late to start anything.All you need is practice to go back as good as you were.

Absolutely not. It's like asking can a 21 year old go trick or treating. Of course you can, there are no chains holding you back.

its not to late. however, youll never make it elites but it will be really fun no matter how old you are

u will break your bones a few time but u can make it if u are dedicated
