Today's Tip Tuesday- feet!
My biggest thing when I'm looking at dancer's (besides posture/alignment) is feet. I love beautiful feet. Pointed toes are a thing of beauty. A dancer must have strength and flexibility in their feet in order to be able to use them correctly.
In order to achieve gorgeous lines in your feet, my first and biggest suggestion is take ballet. It's where you will learn how to use your feet. There is so much in ballet that requires you to use every part of the foot- from the ankle to the tips of your toes- that it will be hard to forget about them.
Exercises with therabands also help a great deal in the strengthening of the ankle. There are some great ones on YouTube, and on many dance sites.
Do you take ballet? Have your feet gotten stronger?
