I decided to take dance because all the other hobbies weren't interesting to me. I took ballet, pointe, lyrical, hip hop and I'm on the competition team for my studio. Pointe is great, but it's very serious. I get all kinds of blisters on my feet because I'm too lazy to get new shoes. ;D

I just love it, good way to express yourself.

I take ballet, lyrical, pointe, jazz, modern, tap, and hip hop.

My feet hurt on pointe, but I have very wide feet so that's most likely the reason.

Answer 11

Well, I dance ballet and I do pointe. I really admired the ballet dancers in famous shows, like the Nutcracker, and I so wanted to be beautiful and do high jumps and those pirouhettes, so I wanted to become one. It's so elegant and so nice, even though we really have to work hard and stretch our muscles, and when I dance in a show, I feel so happy dancing the most elegant dance in front of a big audience and happiness surges out of me, even if I do the simplest moves. Being on pointe really feels good, like you've achieved something, because you need to be really good in ballet and have strong feet and a good balance to get them and I was so excited when I got them, because that's also what I admired about the ballerinas, their pointe shoes. Now I can turn on them and it really feels good and you feel really balanced when you turn on the flat side of the wood, making a smooth turn. But it really hurt at first without the covers and they were too small for me, but I got a bigger size and I got covers for my toes, and I'm comfortable now. At first you feel really stiff in them since it's made out of wood and something else, but they put you lots of bending exercises and eventually, they bend, making it easier to dance.

There's a lot of stretching in ballet to get flexible and to get the splits and it really hurts, but practice makes perfect eventually.

I used to modern dance, but now I stopped. But I really felt freedom and I danced strong movements with passion and it really helped me on the dance floor. It was almost relaxing and really fun after the hard work of ballet.

I also did character, dancing with black high heel shoes, it was really passionate and not bad. Free movement is also fun and you dance freely. They are part of ballet.

Sorry if this is a long answer, but I dance these. I dance, because I somehow get my feelings out and feel free and good when I dance.  =)
