Cost wise I honestly think they would be much of a muchness depending on how invloved your DD gets with the sport.

Dancing costs would vary greatly depending on the style but no matter what there would be costumes, dances shoes (practise and performance) and they would need replacing maybe twice a year depending on how heavy on her feet your DD is. There may be registration costs as well.

I did ballroom dancing competitively and I would wear 2 styles of shoes tbars for Latin and court shoes for Modern and New Vogue. My comp shoes would usually last 4-6 months then when they wore out or were too scuffy they'd become practise shoes and I'd get new shoes for comps. Costumes were hugely expensiveand I'd get a new latin and Mod/N.V costume maybe yearly? I'd have 3x 1hr lessons a week plus practise class. We also trained every day so there were costs of meals etc. For comps you also had to pay for registration, and if we went interstate there were all the costs associated with that.

We were pretty full on though.

Its like anything people always tell me owning horses is expensive but I have not found it to be too bad but then my boys are just for hacking around on the farm not for showing or cross country etc.

HTH a bit
