Pointe!!

Hey guys!!

So today I will give you some tips to improve your point. Pointing is really important in almost all the western dance forms. You have to point when you jump, turn, do an arabesque basically everything! The most important thing is to never sickle  your foot. Its the worst you can do. Its like a useless cheat basically. You foot should aways be winged and turned out or in some cases parallel. Now to improve your pointe you can sit on your knees and bend forward for a long time like this:-

But try to put more pressure on your feet and they should obviously be pointed. 

Next is increasing your pointe with the help of a thera band. Sit on the floor  with one leg stretched out and just put the middle of the band where your foot arches and pull it with the other two ends like this :-

Don't just keep your foot in pointe… keep articulating your foot. Do that at least eight times. 

You can also try stretching out your toes like this:- 

And do this also eight times. Try not to let your big toe go back. Do this slowly. 

You can also try keeping your little toe on the floor first and then your other toes g follow and vice versa.

 You can also tell someone too sit on your feet while in pointe when you are sitting on the floor with your legs stretched out. Then you can get a pointe which looks like this *_*:-

Hope this helped!!! :D thanks for reading! 

HAPPY DANCING!!!
