    This is good advise, it's not unhealthy, it's like a stretch.
    Of course you have to know what are you doing, it's not for absolute beginner or some diy dancer. If it hurts don't do it.

      Exactly! And also you have to be patient when doing this, if you aren’t and just push your knee to the floor you may really hurt yourself.

    @JasmineMcDonald Question- once your feet got really flexible, did it affect your pointe shoes at all? For instance:
    Do they die faster?
    Do you have trouble finding shoes that support your arch?
    Do your feet sometimes feel like they can't hold you up in the shoe because of how flexible they are?

    I don't know how to say it in english but like you have those loops out of rubber that are used to strengthen your thighs. And mostly just for thigh exercises. I usually take the loop, place it over my knuckles hold it on the other side of the loop and straighten your leg. Then you should feel a good stretch
    Edit: and it is also not that expensive. I bought really good ones that have different levels of strength for like 5 bucks

    • @catara.
      @catara. Год назад +8

      Flexible feet is good. Problem is when feet is so strong that pointe shoes don't last long. But that's not a problem for professionals.
      My professor recomended us to put our feet under the couch at home, it's like a stretching. Of course, exercise is what makes your feet strong and flexible, but this is good addition.
      We had similar stretching exercises in class, holding each others feet, pushing it down more and more, and stading on each others feet

    i have a question, if someone knows how to help me..
    for example if i stretch my left foot, i'll have a better arch and form when my knee and ankle and big toe are NOT aligned. there's a better/bigger "dent" if my (left) foot is like, pointing slightly to the right. i know it's not right but when i try to do relevés, my body weight is on my little toes and not under my big toe. I don't know what to do because i don't know how it's supposed to be. i can "force" myself to put my weight on the big toes of my feet but it's really hard, I can't stand if i'm not grabbing something to help me maintain the position + there is no arch at all, it looks like i'm barely pointed when i'm doing my maximum. I don't know if i should keep training on the big toes (it feels like it's the right position but it also feels like there's a natural defect to my ankles 😭 because of how much i suck).
    i've done ballet when i was little (6yo to 11yo) but never was really good and i feel like my feet naturally going behing is something i unconsciously did because it's easier. maybe. i don't know. sending you a video would be the best, i tried to search you on ig to send you a dm but i couldn't find you. it's my main issue to keep on practicing ballet movements :')

      @@User-o3m2m strength and gentle stretches. Massages are also a good way to go but the point will develop with strength too. It doesn’t need to be instantaneous. Also, I am not saying that this stretch is bad, I am just saying that overstretching and overdoing this is bad.
