Sorry. Used to catch a bus that picked up the local pink ninjas on it's route and they talked like fucking whores. Constant drama and the little ones couldn't get enough of who and what the older ones were fucking and doing on the weekends. I was just some dude in another seat and I heard all their dirty laundry.
Gaggles of girls =/= a place where they bloom in any positive way. All young girls in peer groups are jumping out of their skins wanting to be grown up, and their only view of being grown up what their older peers relate about their sex lives.
You women here know this is true. Puberty is a big deal for chicks way more than for guys. A good run through puberty can completely change a girl's expectations for life. Long term friendships break up if one girl gets the tits and the other doesn't. While the burly dude and his skinny pal can remain buddies into old age as long as video games still around. Young teen girls will form teams to get into music shows behind their parents back, and test each other to see who can make it through the layers of disgusting roadies to get some sex time with the band.
Girls on their own are trouble. Sorry, but you know it's true. Even Girl Scouts. All the troop members will be hanging on every word of the sluttiest girl there. Again, because how the hit puberty defines their social value going forward, while a guy has many different roles he can take on without alienating his friends who take up other roles. Developed girls will naturally exclude under-developed girls and every girl knows this. You know. You probably did it yourself.
Also, while physical fitness is good. Dancing. If taken seriously, can do a number on a developing female body. Bigger shoulders. No hips. Possibly even a complete jihad on tit and ass development. Again, you'll know the "sporty girls" who got hit hard with this effect.
Also, Ballet can create "duck walk", because of the strange feet placement they need to learn and force. While it makes them great at pirouettes etc it can take away from general walking (though I have seen the best walking come from, girls who had dancer backgrounds, but it looked like they trained themselves for that. High level deportment. Almost like an old school fashion cat walk.)
If you do start Ballet classes in your communities, keep them age-separated. Keep them sex-separated (the few dudes who would catch the bus were all obvious queers). Or maybe look at what they do in the Faroe Islands (start on Flikr - I stumbled across the tag years ago and it was the first time I felt what we'd lost in more suburban environments), where they have months-long black winters and they need to deal with youthful energy and stave off depression, isolation and insularity. They have indoor home activity rooms, and run regular community theater and sports.
Make the Ballet part of an over-arching set of performance training rather than a single focus. Different types of dance. Different types of theater. Keep the parents involved. It's a community-wide bonding experience. If you dump the kids together because you're "too busy" then they'll make up their own peer-based culture themselves without guidance and wisdom to help them, or even worse take cues from (((popular culture))).

This is the absolute truth.
As far as the puberty thing, I didn't have that experience and was a late bloomer but my friends stayed the same pretty much from 3rd grade on. I still have friends from when I was a child. Perhaps I'm an outlier...am interested to hear what other women say. Thank you for the comment- I always find your insights valuable.
