POINTE EXERCISES FOR FOOT & ANKLE STRENGTH AND STABILITY - Ballet Barre | natalie danza

Improve your foot and ankle strength on pointe with these simple but effective exercises to the beautiful music of Bizet's Carmen (Habanera).
Strong, stable and controlled pointe work starts with a strong and stable body. Feet, ankles, legs and abdominals are fundamental to this. There isn't always time in a pointe class to go through all these exercises but you can supplement your pointe training with exercises like these at home.
IMPORTANT - NEVER START POINTE WITHOUT THE SUPERVISION OF A BALLET TEACHER. POINTE SHOULD ONLY BE PRACTICED AT HOME ONCE YOU HAVE A GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROPER TECHNIQUE.

I cant get up on one feet..i put pressure on the barre to be able to get up but thats not right i believe..can anyone help me how to do in the right way??

[@NatalieDanzaBallet]

Keep working one two feet and building strength until you can do it with one foot. Lots of repetition with good technique will get you there :)

[@sunris3peridot13]

I had the same problem but I found doing the one foot releves on flat shoes many times helped me a bit, obviously I’m not a professional yet but just saying smtg that helped me as well

[@Hannah7Banana]

I don’t even do ballet and I’m watching this

[@nancytestani1470]

Wonderful, isn’t it.

[@DrNanite]

i have plantar fasciitis and this actually felt kind of good. i wonder if this will cure it or make it worse.

[@steventhomas8514]

My feet and calfs got cramp watching this needs must if u want the ankle and feet strength i am after

[@Melodyharter]

Hey when you take your both feet there turned out mine all ways want to turn forward?

[@lsweet222]

Hi Natalie! I love your channel! Can I do this in normal ballet flats or does it have to always be pointe? Kind regards 💞

[@NatalieDanzaBallet]

Hi Lucy, you can absolutely do this in ballet flats just going up to your demi-pointe. It’s actually great for building strength before pointe! :)

[@lsweet222]

@@NatalieDanzaBallet wow okay thank you for your response 😀🌹

[@natalie8457]

Hi Natalie, this got me going again after a two week break - summer holidays - I've done the workout twice already and aim to do it three times a week to keep and improve my strength over the summer! Just wanted to ask a quick question, did you ever struggle to get right over your shoes, and if so what helped?

[@NatalieDanzaBallet]

Hi Natalie! I'm so so happy you're finding the video useful! I just published a pointe q&a where I talk about getting over the box. I hope it's helpful :)

[@natalie8457]

Thank you Natalie! I've kept it up so far- every other day 😊

[@Julia-sw9dg]

could i do these in normal ballet slippers and not in pointe shoes?

[@victoriapurswell8429]

Yes, pointe exercise can also be done on demi pointe for prepointe or just general foot and ankle strength 😊

[@emigabdev]

very nice combo. be careful, when you come down from pointe on straight legs in 1st position, I noticed your ankle rolls forward which indicates you are trying to hold turn out from the ankle and not top of the hip

[@NatalieDanzaBallet]

Thanks

[@Feline.Therian]

Why are you so darn pretty

[@mimi5180]

How old were you when you started dancing ballet?

[@leahsilva164]

@mimi i’m pretty sure she started as an adult
