Question

how tall should you be when you are a gymnast
what is the perfect hieght for a dancer
what is the best dance for someone who is 5'9

Answer 1

For a man about 5 feet 6 inches would be an ideal gymnast.

For a woman about 5 feet 4 to 5 feet 8 and weigh no more than 100#



Dancer should be on the tall side.



For someone 5 feet 9 tango would be best. Make sure your partner is at least 3-4 inches shorter if you are a man.

Answer 2

Tallest Gymnast In The World

Answer 3

While most elite female gymnasts are under 5 ft 4 in., there have been several standout gymnasts who were taller than that, particuarly Svetlana Khorkina, a three-time world all-around champion, and 5-time world uneven bars champion (twice gold in that event at the Olympics), who challenged the the unofficial height rule at 5 ft 5 1/2 in, as well as the unoffical age limit rule, winning her third world all-around title at age 24. At the NCAA level, there are large numbers of champion gymnasts who are well over 5 ft 4 in. But if you want to know what is the average, then that would probably be between 4 ft 8 in and 5 ft 3 in, with anything above 5 ft 4 in considered very tall.

Answer 4

Girl gymnasts usually range from about 4'9" to 5'4".

Perfect height for a fancer is around 5'4"-ish. Not too tall, not too short. That's my height, and I think it's ideal for gymnastics and dance. I do both.

If you're 5'9", you should probably go for a dance that involves a lot of jumps and leaps because you could probably jump pretty high for them.

Answer 5

It doesn't really matter how tall you are as long as you can pull your routines well.... You'd have to adjust your routines to be more elegant with a longer line as opposed to the more athletic looking pixie-ish athletes. But it can be done. As for dance, I think at 5'9 you can really do anything you want to do.

Answer 6

It depends. most gymnasts range from 4' 10 - 5' 4. but as long as you are confident you can do anything!

Answer 7

you can be any size, but it is much easyer if your short! the tallest gymnast is like 5.4! I'm 5.7 and it's a big disadvantage, but i just deal with it i can't make myslf any shorter!!

Answer 8

I don't think it matters
