How did any one learn how to stand on there tippitoes like a ballerina ?

Answer 1

uhhh practice duh!!!! and to be on our "tippitoes" we wear pointe shoes which is painful and it takes years to get ur ankles strong enough

Answer 2

Actually im a ballerina... and we use special shoes called pointes at the bottom of the shoe is flat so when you stand you will be able to stand on your toes very spimple.. but you need practice...

Answer 3

alot of training and practice and pointe shoes!

Answer 4

haha it takes a dedicated person! U have training for years, then go into pointe!! It extremly painful a first, but when u love dancing u dont stop or give up.  After years of dance ur feet and toes are really strong, and it just becomes natural and after a while it don't hurt that bad nemore!

Answer 5

years and years of training, hard work, pain, blood and SWEAT. its not easy but you just have to be motivated :)
