What else can I help you with?
Can you teach pointe to yourself?
if you are about to or are teaching yourself pointe work, stop! pointe work is for people with years of ballet training and 1 - 2 years of pre pointe or strengthening classes. like all things to do with ballet, you need to have a trained teacher to guide you through the proses and correct you when you go astray. pointe is dangerous enough as it is so tyring it without a proper teacher is going to be dangerous, recluse and down right stupid! nobody can teach themselves pointe. if they do they will ruin their feet and probably break something along the way. hope i helped!
How old do you have to be to wear Pointe Shoes?
age is not really a factor when it comes to going on pointe. it is in the strength of the dancer but because the foot and body do not stop developing until late teens, most proper dance instructors will not allow a child to go on pointe until the age of 11.
What do you do if you have a mean ballet teacher?
You can either work harder at ballet and they will be nicer, quit, or if the teacher yells at you tell her to stop.
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.
