Well, just doing releves is helpful, practice makes perfect :-) But if you want something different to help strenghthen your calves/feet for releves, get a "theraband" and hook it over your foot. Pull the two ends of it back towards you (you should be sitting down for this) and then work on pointing and flexing your foot. The tension in the theraband puts more reisitance on your foot making you work harder to pointe it. It is a very good excercise, and is also very good for new pointe dancers.

How do you get a strong core for ballet?
There are many different exercises that can be used to strengthen your core. My first suggestion would be taking as many ballet classes you can. Basic ballet moves at the barre increase the muscles in your core used when dancing in the center. Another good method is to use ankle weights at the barre which increases the level or resistance. Aside from regular classes, I recommend working out at home or at the gym. Holding the plank position engages all of your muscles in your core along with other muscles in your body.

What would a ballet dancer have least need for in physical fitness?
A ballet dancer would have the least need for excessive anaerobic strength training, such as heavy weightlifting. While strength is important, ballet primarily emphasizes flexibility, balance, and endurance, which are better developed through dance-specific exercises and techniques. The focus is more on controlled movements and body alignment rather than raw muscle mass.
What is better the Russian ballet or English ballet?
