How much is 9 pairs of ballet shoes?
For pointe shoes, you also need toe pads and toe seperations, and that comes to about sixty dollars or more. The canvas pre-pointe shoes are usually around thirty dollars. Be aware that you have to sew the straps of the pre-pointe shoes. Normal leather ballet shoes can be from fifteen dollars or less to thirty dollars or more.
Do you have to sew elastics onto pointe shoes?
No, you don't have to. However, they can be handy to help stop the heel from slipping down while you are dancing - you want your shoes to be as secure as possible.
Is pointe ballet dangerous?
yes point ballet is dangerous cause if you do something wrong in point shoes you can break you ankle !!!!!!!!!!!! Dancing en pointe can be dangerous if you try without the sufficient training. You usually start dancing en pointe after about 5 or 6 years of ballet training (this depends on how many lessons you have per week), and you must be 11 years old or older. When you are under 11 your bones are still growing and you could permanantly damage them. Your pointe shoes need to be carefully fitted, and you must be taught to tie the ribbons correctly, and sew on new ribbons. Your ballet teacher will carefully and slowly teach you to dance on your toes, and you must follow her instructions perfectly. At first you will probably only be allowed to dance en pointe under her careful supervision. If you follow instructions, and don't take risks you will be fine. It is said though that ballet dancers sometimes have problems with their feet (especially ankles and toes) later in life.
How much can pointe shoes cost?
hi, well pointe shoes can cost anywhere between $50 to $500 it all depends on make, colour, brand, shape and style. If you're a beginner i recommend buying a pair of shoes between $100 and $300 they're usually what you would pay for shoes and are usually very god quality and have wider platforms (the end you stand on) and softer boxes (the hard bits) just research how to sew on ribbons before you buy (it can be difficult) hope it helps! xxeliza
Can you cut off the elastic on ballet shoes?
Yes, you can. However you will need to sew on some ribbons or different elastic to hold them in place or the shoes will fall off while you are dancing!
