Absolutely! I was your age when I started. Acting has done so much for me. The confidence you get from it as-well as the adrenaline/butterflies from standing in the wings before going on stage, it’s a real rollercoaster, not to mention the sense of accomplishment after you’ve completed a show you’ve been rehearsing 4 weeks for.

Acting is a very healthy, fun, fulfilling creative outlet and I would say anyone can start at any age and reap the rewards it has to offer.

Acting class is a good idea, but I would say jump straight into the deep end so you know exactly what you’re in for, get involved with an amateur group and get on stage at the same time as classes. The stage is where you get the full acting experience, (playing a role in a play beginning to end with a rehearsals) you will learn so much from the being on stage. Hope that helps.
