Airesdancer: It sounds like a wonderful oppurtunity and a dream come true for you. I'm not sure why you're asking perfect strangers for our opinion, but I think ballet is one of the highest arts, and the world needs people like you to keep the tradition going. As Joseph Campbell said, "Follow your bliss."
By the way, if you haven't seen it already, check out the movie video, "Billy Elliot."
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing...
I love to dance, swing is one of my passions, but I dance pretty much anything, from flamenco's sevillanas to trashy techno/rave.
