hey!
if you go en pointe without being told to by a Ballet instructor or/and a dance phsyiotherapist you will most likely injure yourself. going en pointe can be a wonderful or horrible experience. if you take the time to strengthen your legs, ankles, feet and core then you will get en pointe and stay en pointe without injury's. if you go en pointe just because it looks cool and you haven't actually made yourself ready then you could break an ankle, break a toe, damage your knees and completely ruin your feet and dance Carrier for life. you cant replace broken feet. if you want to get en pointe then talk to your dance teacher about pre pointe and maybe you and her can arrange something XD
hope i helped!

Can I go on pointe?
If your dance teacher has told you to get pointe shoes, then you should go en pointe when you are supervised to start with. If you havn't been told to get pointes then i would not recommend it as you could hurt your feet/ankles.
What is the box of a pointe shoe made out of?
It is made out of cardboard well at least the ones made by bloc are. My pointe teacher told me some can be made of newspaper along with cardboard.
What sort of person offers to do something without being told?
A person who takes initiative, or perhaps one who is generous.
Does pointe ballet really deform your feet?
If you start pointe work when you are not ready, not strong enough, it can be very damaging to your feet and bones. If you sstart when you are ready and strong enough, you can certainly get blisters, etc. I have been doing pointe for about 6 or 7 years now and the backs of my heels have reddish calluses. My pinky toes as well are like big red knobs, callused over. Neither my heel or pinky toes hurt to the touch, although sometime if I dance en pointe for a while at a time the will hurt, as will the rest of your toes, depending on what kind of pointe work you do. I've been told ballet dancers will sometimes develop arthritis too later in life if you are serious about ballet and do it often. After 6 or 6 years of pointe work, my feet are now a lot stronger than before but generally feel and look great (minus the knobby pinky toes and heels).
