Would the just the plain bachelor of arts make sense to get if I just wanted to teach ballet and not become a professional dancer?

Thanks. I didn't mean to disturb a UK forum.

A few of you asked a few things about me and here are the answers: I want to learn to dance because ballet has been an obsession of mine all my life and never got around to learning it. I don't expect to become a professional dancer but would enjoy working in the field possibly as a teacher. And I am located in Virginia in the United States. There's a college near me that offers a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Dance and also a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance. Does anyone know the difference between those two degrees?

I'm 28 years old and have just started to learn ballet. I have a few questions. Is it totally unrealistic to expect to someday get a degree in dance if I haven't danced since I was a child? Can weight lifting contradict ballet? What exercises are good for new dancers to do? What would be a good diet for a ballet dancer?
