The raising of the body onto the toes, either fully or on the balls of the feet, is called "relevé" in Ballet. When performed on the toes, it is referred to as "pointe," while "demi-pointe" describes the position on the balls of the feet. Both movements are essential for developing balance and strength in ballet technique.

Is the RAD demi pointe shoes for pointe work?

kind of.. demi point shoes are to make your feet stronger.. iv been on pointe for a while now, and my RAD teacher has just suggested that i purchase a pair of demi pointes (or soft blocks) i have strong feet, but this is what she explained to me: professional dancers dance on pointe.. so why do we dance all these years on flats or split soles? she says that professionals almost never dance on stage with flats, so in order to train our feet and not put them in total pain with pointe shoes.. we wear demi pointes.
