From 5 years old onwards, dance students are trained carefully to pointe through demi pointe. Ankles, metatarsals, toes are stretched one by one, with knees stretched. It is essential in dancing , and if it is well done, many more movements will be easy and smooth.=)
Lisa Howell is a specialised dance physiotherapist. Here she's showing how to correctly pointe the feet slowly. The technique and exercise are to be repeated in years of training, especially if we want to dance en pointe!
