Hi.

I'm gonna try American ballet for the first time in the beginning of Sept. I'm in the age range of 10-16, and I'm going to to to a beginner adult class. I have a few questions on American ballet:

* How many dance steps are in American ballet?

* For how may years will I be in beginner before I go to pointe?

* How can you get in Pointe in 1-2 years? and what do i have to do to achieve this?

*What if I do ballet in the weekends for 2-3 hrs and I practice about 30 min to 1 hr in weekdays?

Thx!

  1. hey your gonna have so much fun doing ballet.  i have been doing ballet for 11 years now. there are a lot of dance steps in  ballet I'm not sure how many i just no that there is a lot. you will have about 3 or4 years befor you will be able to go  on pointe. you don'tnt want to go on too soon cuzz you will hurt your ankles. there is no way for you to go on pointe in 1 to 2 years. it took me 11 years. you can dance as long as u want that wont make you go on pointe any faster. you just have to be pacient.

  2. 1. a ton there are alot of terms...

    2. id say well...it depends on the class ive been dancing for 7 years and i got on pointe 1 and a half year ago, my studio is very strict about your feet developing but id say if you work hard 5 maybe four minimum if you dont want to hurt yourself...

    3. you cant get on pointe in 1 or 2 years if your teachers are smart

    if your teachers are idiots and they dont care how developed your feet are then who knows how long it will take but the thing with pointe is that it takes alot of feet strength to hold up your body your feet have to be totally developed (at my studio you have to be 11 to even be considered for pointe) just so that you dont hurt yourself and grow the wrong way

    4. 1 hour each weekday? becuase dancing at home is good but you dont get corrections and you could teach yourself wrong id just join one or two classes maybe 2 hours a week and do some strengthening exercises at home

    be very cautious about pointe tho and have fun! :D

  3. you can get into pointe in 2 years if you practice practice practice
