Practice makes perfect! Keep trying and working at it.
If you want to improve your strength do pre-pointe exercises such as using a theraband, doing releves, and working your ankles, toes, and calf muscles.
If you want to improve your pointe technique you have to keep practicing. Stay in class, ask your instructor for help and watch videos on how you can improve. Do the best you can.
If you're having a problem with the natural form of your foot usually there's nothing you can do except to work around it and find the right shoe for you.
Yes although it is not very common at all. Your teacher [assuming you are a boy] may put you en pointe for a short time to strengthen your feet and improve your feet's flexibility. There have been one or two cases of men performing on stage in pointe shoes but they were only as skits intended for humor.
"En pointe" refers to dancing in pointe shoes. Non-pointe ballet shoes are demi-pointe shoes, and the dancing is "en demi-pointe".
easy keep trying your best and never get up........but don't get burnout... try something new as well. talk to your teachers and find your weaknesses and then improve them...and then when your ready you will be en pointe. :) good luck!
There isn't a definition of pointe shoe because it is an English word. The real word that is french for "pointe shoe" is sur la pointe which means on top of pointe.
It is physically possible...BUT... do not do it. It can break toes, feet, and possibly mess up tendens and muscles in the process. It also hurts. If you want to go onto pointe then you need to buy a real pair of pointe shoes. They are usually cheaper online. NO! DO NOT TRY THIS! This can break your feet. Demi pointe shoes are for demi pointe. Pointe shoes are for pointe. ANSWER 2 Hi, Demi-pointe shoes are used so that you can experience the sensations of pointe shoes without going on pointe. THEY ARE NOT FOR GOING ON POINTE IN! If you are only wearing demi-pointe shoes then your instructor obviously does not feel you ankles are strong enough for pointe work yet. If you do this then you face the chance of never being able to go on pointe because you have damaged you feet. So stick to demi pointe shoes for demi pointe and wait a while until your ankles are strong enough to go on pointe! PS you should never go on pointe before you are 12 as research has shown that the joints etc. in your feet have not fully developed!

Yes, although pointe is not as common as demi-pointe for males. I have seen a few males in pointe shoes (white, not pink), but I think most males prefer demi-pointe.
Pointe shoes began to change during the romantic era. Before that, a dancer could only go on relavae. The usuall silk slipper would be padded with cotton wool and years Later they were stiffened with glue to help support the feet. Imagine a pointe shoe with out thr glue!! And we think we get bad bunnyons!!
