This is a great way to begin working in new shoes, and if you are a beginner, an essential exercise to get the feel of working through the demi-pointe.

what shoes is she wearing?

@enpointe13 Seems pretty normal to me since theyre brand new. before you break them in its always a little hard to roll through demi pointe. also, for the heel popping off, you should try to sew your elastics at the back of the heel of the shoe but with each end about 1 inch and half away from eachother so the heel will stay in place :) learned from experience

@wowthatsailor omg please do not worry about your weight!! if your a little over wight it doesnt matter if you go en pointe its not going to kill you(: and to be honest, you should never have to worry about your weight unless you want to be become incredibly serious with ballet, like as a job
