Why can people still wear pointe shoes?

Answer 1

Pointe shoes in dance can be worn because they are just like flat ballet shoes except they have ribbons and layers of paper and glue in the toe part of the shoe or the box so that dancers can stand on their toes in them. I have them and they hurt at first, but you get used to them and they don't hurt as bad. Also, as long as you are properly trained and use good technique you won't get any injuries.
