Just now seeing this. After a terrible bout of FHL tendonitis, I"m trying stay over my big toe and also I"m just starting pointe work at age 51. Great video.
Thank you so much for this video! My dance instructor recently noticed that I'm rolling my right foot to the outside. I have been working to make sure that I am rolling up between my big and second toes on that side and my releve is lower on that foot because it is weak. I'm hoping these exercises will help me gain strength so I can get to full and correct releve again :-)
My ballet teacher told me I need to work on my ankle alignment. This video will be such a help! That being said, any dancers here have advice on how to fix it? I'm a 17 year old beginner, lol!
Chemo induced peripheral neuropathy affects my feet, legs and hands. Are there exercises that will help me get onto the balls of the feet to start with?
No, they are galvanized steel pipe from places like Hope Depot or Lowes. I find PVC too light weight for me personally. These are much heavier, but still affordable.
My ankle was badly broken & 2 years later my ankle is ready for this. It's almost healed. Thank you for the excercises!
I am 28 years old and finally able to get into ballet! This video was very helpful and I will be doing these exercises every night before bed

If i use a small medicine ball instead of a tennis ball would it strengthen my feet more?
+Emily Tompkins It can certainly be used. I'm not entirely sure if one would be more beneficial than the other.
Abby your the canon of beauty of feet and calves, that's one of the reasons a married the mother of my son.
I adore your calves! 😍
Sadly, I think I have my mom's weak ankles rather than my dad's strong ankles. ;-;
We hope these exercises can help you build more strength!
My feet are so asymmetrical.
My Demi looks like that and I’m 21 🙄
