Yes. Social partner dances are built for beginners, and structured teaching makes them accessible to anyone.
Adults can certainly take up ballet. As this is a swing dance school, a dedicated ballet studio would be the better fit.
It is never too late to start as an adult. Consistent practice and the right class level matter more than age.
Line dancing typically features the grapevine, kick-ball-change, weave, pivot turn and step-touch. For line dancing itself, a specialist group would suit you best.
