Where do you get pointe ballet shoes?

You should be able to buy pointe shoes from the same place you buy your normal ballet shoes, or another dance supplies shop. It is very important to ensure they fit properly, as otherwise you may hurt yourself. Pointe shoes should only be worn by dancers who know what they are doing, and have a teacher.

What is pre ballet?

Do by pre-ballet you mean pre-pointe? Because Pre-Pointe is the lesson that is provided to Pointe ballet dancers that are not yet ready to wear or perform in pointe shoes. Commonly the class is the same if not similar to regular pointe class, the only difference is that the dancer wears regular ballet shoes and performs on demi pointe. Basically, pre-pointe is the class that readies your feet and legs for the strength and skill needed to perform in Pointe Shoes.


Do you go on pointe shoes in pre-pointe?

It depends... i did but i know some schools don't let you until after pre-point. Generally you are in pre-pointe shoes which are similar but not the same.

What is the difference between mirella advanced pointe shoes to mirella proffecinal pointe shoes?

They fit the same. The professional shank isn't glued down all the way by the heel, so it can be removed for expedited break-in time. Even if you keep the shank, they will break in much faster than the advanced, yet they do die quicker.
