Ballet Shoes

Dancers wear blocked slippers called toe shoes or Pointe shoes in order to dance on the tips of their toes. Toe or Pointe dancing was transformed into an artistic expression. Whilst is another type of shoe that have been described as an athletic shoe. There made from paper and paste, there remains remarkably few serious injuries found in the feet of the modern ballerinas. At first some dancers resorted to wearing a soft Pointe shoe for jumping on one foot and a hard one to support the leg for balances and pirouettes. The introduction of stiffer shoes made possible new technical achievements not previously known.This website helped me learn about different types of ballet shoes. http://podiatry.curtin.edu.au/ballet.html#fantasy
