ballet tradition dating back to the 19th. This subject holds particular significance to me. I have danced for most my life‚ and as a young girl I desperately wanted to dance in pointe shoes. Pointe work seemed like the pinnacle of achievement for a dancer‚ and I waited anxiously for my instructor to allow it. When I eventually began to dance on pointe I realized two things.
