Tbf, I know plenty of older women who take beginner dance classes, including ballet. (Me included.) It's often something they always loved the idea of but never got to do when they were kids. Then at some point once their own kids are older and they have free time, they decide to take a beginner class. I think it's even more common since lockdown as lots of people started dancing along with YouTube tutorials when stuck at home. Then booked a class once they came back.

Heck, even beyong wrong body/gendered soul, it isn't even that uncommon for men; shit, many top athletes include ballet in their training regimen because of how hardcore ballet is as an exercise.
