No, actually the older can sometimes be better. Your feet are developed, unlike that of a 9 year old. I have heard of women in their 20's and 30's going on pointe for the first or second time in their lives. A lot of women at my studio restart ballet again with their daughters and get into. They do fine on pointe.
