Here are some things to think about ebfore decideding if your ready for pointe yet or not.... Do you take regularly scheduled ballet classes? Have you been taking ballet calsses for two years, and take no less then three classes per year? Are you physically strong? Your toes have to be able to hold your entire body weight... its normally ( when not on pointe) distributed by your entire foot. Are you able to do tendus and frappes easily and have the vocabularly to do what is asked of you? Can you do a well executed pirotte, from the center. Basically your toes and feet have to be flexible and strong. As long as you have these qualities your well on your way to being able to learn pointe. Its actually better if your feet are developed. This way it causes less injury. Thats about it. I hope i have answered your question. If you have any others just e-mail me.... i have been teaching ballet and other types of dance for 3 years and i have taken dance in general for 15 plus years ...
