Dancing

My dance teacher is a really good teacher and we win lots of awards, but i'm terrified of her. She screams when someone messes up and yells and stomps her feet. She even throws shoes at ppl when we rehearse. HELP

ok, i guess im a pretty good dancer...

i mean, im in the highest level at my dance studio, im in the front line for all of my dances, and i have a solo this year...

but my main problem is flexibility!!! i have NONE! i mean, i can do a split but i really have to force it down, so its not really helping my grand battements or fan kicks.

i swear my strattle is like 90 degrees lol!
my fan kicks are like 90 degrees
my grand battements are actually like 100 degrees so i guess thats good :]

so my question is...how do i improve my flexibility over the summer so next year i can do alot more stuff? (like better leaps, all 3 splite...) and is flexibility really everything??

I just finished my freshman year of college as a Theatre major. I have been dancing since I was 3. I have taken Ballet, tap, jazz, hip-hop, pretty name any dance form and I've at least had 1 year experience.
I would really like to major at a college in dance. But am I too old to do that?
I was also part of a pre-professional/professional dance company for 4 years.

She says I'm way too old, that you have to have started when you were tiny. I don't want to be a proffesional or anything, I want to do it for fun, friends, fitness and something to do. I've started contemporary this year and I've caught on fine! How can I convince her that 14 isn't too old?

I'm a 17 year newbie to both ballet, jazz, and hip hop - and I love it. I did ballet when I was really little, but quit after about a year or so to pursue my other love - horseback riding. I'm planning a rigourous schedule this summer and fall, and I'm considering doing something with dance in college. I don't think I'd like to major in it (though the idea of owning a studio seems nice - I've always loved the arts, even when I wasn't dancing and have dreamed of doing something in that realm or in competitive horse shows), but possibly a minor or doing a college team?
My question to you is - is this just a silly dream I should give up on? Are college programs just too tough for someone like me?

I was watching a documentary about dancing in South Central LA and they were showing various dances like clown dancing and krumping. but they also showed little girls (age 6 and up) doing "the stripper dance" all in the name of expression and as a way to avoid gang life. My question to you is. isn't that also inappropriate. Aren't there other alternatives? other dances? or am i making too big of a deal about this? enlighten me please.

Or is it something that has to be practiced since childhood in order to work? If it's possible to learn it in 20s, which exercises/stretches, techniques, etc would help in accomplishing this, and how often do they need to be performed?
