Ballet shoes are either slippers for practising or pointe shoes. Which, after a girl goes through pre-pointe possibly for one year, they can get pointe shoes then perform pointe! Guys do where ballet slippers but they do not go on pointe
It means to go on pointe shoes or tip-toes.
Acutally - it depends on where you go. If you dance with BTDA for example, it goes to grade 5, then intermediate and up. If, like myself, you dance with the royal ballet school, it goes to grade 8. pointe work does not start at a specific grade. I dance with the North Wales School of Dance and really, the pointe work strats around grade 5. But the ballet teachers will only let you start if they think that you are ready (ankles are strong, point is good) You really have to work hard and pointe is quite dangerous, you can brake your ankles.
It can vary depending on where you live, how your grading system works and which dance school you go to. Mainly, you start pointe-work at grade 5 and carry on through grade 6, plus any more grades after that if you are still dancing.
Well it's a really big thing and you have to do ballet for a long time to be ready to gon onto pointe
