There are many different pointe excercises to do with a "theraband." A theraband is a long stretchy rubber band that is sometimes used in physical therapy. Good excercises with it are putting it around your foot and holding the ends with your hands and working on pointing and flexing the foot (while sitting) One can also put it around the ball of the foot and work on just pointing the toes.
