Why would you read that you shouldn't buy pointe shoes unless you go to pointe class but you bought them to practice before lessons start next year?
that's what I'm going to do anyway. i think its a great way to get a head start on pointe. i mean look on the Internet or buy a book, or watch a pointe instructional movie before your pointe class. you'll just be even more prepared for your class.

Can you teach yourself Pointe Work Ballet?
It is possible to teach yourself how to do pointe, but the real reason ballet teachers don't put you on pointe when you want is because it is extremely dangerous to your body especially your ankles. I know several people you went on pointe when they weren't ready and now they can hardy walk let alone dance.To tell if your ankles are strong enough to start pointe work is by an x-rayIf the doctor says it is safe to start on pointe you can teach yourself by videos.GOOD LUCK!!!

Is pointe bad for you in dance?
If you care for your feet and build the muscles in your feet (by doing dyna band exercises) before starting pointe you should not have a problem. However if your start pointe when you are still young it can hurt your feet. Typically pointe shoes can be worn starting around age 12.
How long are you usuallu pre pointe before you become pointe?
It depends on how long you have been dancing for, but usaly your teacher will start you en pointe at the age of 11+ as this is when the bones in the feet are strong enough to not be manipulated by the shoes. If you start too early the bones are too soft and you can end up crippled for life.
Are your feet supposed to hurt in pointe shoes?
in the beginning, yes, your feet will hurt, but once you have broken in your pointe shoes they will start feeling like a second skin, and you will be able to practice and do pointe exercises more fluently and more easily.
How old do you have to be to dance en pointe?
A safe age to start pointe is ages 11 to 13, which is when the growth plates of the ankle have fused. Starting pointe before this has the potential to permanently disfigure the ankle and/or foot. Also generally before this girls have not had enough strength training to sustain them en pointe.
