The age limit for So You Think You Can Dance is 18-30 years old. You have to be 18 to audition and 30 is the stopping age limit.

usually the skills needed to perform a dance are more than a single turn, a leap, axel, russian(2nd leap), splits, high kick

it began in Mexico when a man needed a hat, so he did a hat dance. (for more information, see "rain dance")

The only real attributes that are truly needed for physical dance would be the ability to move your body and a desire to do so. The experience of dance is enhanced if the dancer has a flexible body that moves easily and gracefully. It is important not to overlook the fact that dance has a core emotional component as well. Using movement as a form of personal expression is truly the goal of dance.

While it's true that you don't need a degree to dance, there ARE doctorates in dance if you want to pursue one; a couple of schools in the US that offer the degree are Temple and Ohio State Universities. I've linked the names of the schools to their pages on the program so you can read about exactly what is involved.

There is no age limit to studying contemporary dance. However, if you begin after 25+ chances of employment after studying are close to none.

They can't dance well but they can "bounce" to the rhythm of the music.

11 is an okay age to start. I prefer 7 or 8 years old. If you are 11 I would say get into dance ASAP and good luck!

You can start dance classes at any ages as long you really want to
