Hi. I have another problem. I can't seem to be accepted in the Pointe world. I've been doing ballet for Seven Whole Years, but I'm still not wearing pointes. Can you please help me again?

First of all, the amount of years you've been dancing doesn't determine when you are strong enough to start pointe work. Some girl's ankle bones develop later or aren't strong enough for pointe shoes. That doesn't mean you'll never get point shoes, that just means that your dance teacher doesn't think your ready for pointe.

It could cause permanent damage to your bone structure if you aren't ready for them yet. But trust me, you'll get there eventually:)
