Answer Question

    It's recommended to be rather experienced in ballet to do pointe ballet. Pointe ballet is very strenuous on the ankles, so the more you know about what you're doing, the better.

      You need to be experienced as a ballet students before beginning to pointe i recommend 3+ years, also you should be in the age from 11-14 to begin or 15-18. You should  be able to do releves, eleves, passe, peques, and other balancing exercises. You need to maintain your core strength in the pelvis. Make sure you have strong ankles and calf's. Pointe is hard and you could injure your self if your not prepared.

        The basics of ballet. Learn it, love it.  Practice your flat shoes first, then you can start on point shoes. But most importantly, you need to know the beauty in ballet.

        Well ive heard that you should take ballet for at least four years before you go on pointe and it takes alot of hard work and you should have strong ankles before you go on pointe to get stronger calves and stuff id consider slow releves and slow tondues to work all the muscles in your feet and calves :)
