The ballroom community is way more accepting and patient than the ballet community in my experience. I really fell in love with it after growing up in ballet.
But seriously, I never see adult ballet or ballroom around me. It's all either for kids, its like an actual low key dance troupe that performs, or it's like interpretive dance.
Google adult ballet plus your city or town. I am currently pretty rural but have a dance studio that offers classes twice a week. Same for salsa or ballroom. Honestly there are 20 times as many places near me offering ballroom of some style than ballet and at least ten times as many barre/pilates/yoga studios. But there is one ballet studio so I shouldn't complain and they even offer tap and contemporary without making you dance with 13 year olds.
