Here's my question... If you could do something that you loved, or pursue a goal/dream, in a less than ideal situation, would you do it?

So I recently asked one of my ballet instructors if she thought I could get back on pointe. She said yes, but said if I wanted pointe instruction instead of just taking an easier class on pointe, I should sign up for a specific level with the school instead of the adult classes I'm taking now. This has me worried for a few reasons.
1) The price for the semester is over $1000. I'm not sure if this would be more expensive or less expensive than what I do now. Right now, I can sign up for 10 adult classes for $130. I can take those whenever I want. In the student division, I'd have to take four classes a week every week, or risk penalties. So really, it probably is cheaper, but it's more money to plunk down at once.
2) I'd be taking classes with students with an average age of 13. I'm 24. This really bothers me... I can't pin point why, but I know I'd be uncomfortable.
3) They have strict rules for their student division. You have to come to all your classes every week, you have to make up missed classes, etc, or else you get put in a lower class level or dropped from the program all together. When you're a kid and all you have to worry about is school and homework, it's a lot easier to make it to these classes. I work two jobs, one of which doesn't have a set schedule and I could get in trouble for lowering my availability. So basically, it would be a lot harder to fit into my schedule, because right now, I take 2-3 classes a week, if I feel like it/have time for it.

So basically, I'm not sure what to do. I think I'll probably first take a trial class (technique followed by pointe) to see how I like it. Getting back on pointe is something I'd really like to do. I know I don't have a future as a professional dancer, but it's still something I would like to do. I guess I'm just struggling with the idea of paying more money, being around kids half my age, and dealing with the new scheduling constraints, and just needed to vent it all out. So yeah.. What would you do?
