Pointe shoes question.?
Published by Jammy Sinclair on April 30, 2009I don't have a area in my house that is really very good for my pointe shoes and then some parts are carpeted. I am working on getting a little thing to put over the carpet, but for now is it alright to use a yoga mat.
I would only use it for releves nothing really other than that.
A yoga mat is ok for now just don't do anything but releves or you might get hurt or twist an ankle, if your less experienced i would reccomend holding on to something for support

you could get some laminated floring it looks really good and its pritty cheep!!
its also just like a dance floor with out the spring you might need rosin though

I've been dancing en pointe for about 4 years now. I wouldn't suggest using a yoga mat, and definitely not carpet. It would be very easy to twist your ankle.

i'm a pointe dancer myself & i would recommend you practice on a hardwood floor or you could get a laminated floor. I tried a yoga mat and I fell on my knee and now it is hurt badly.. so i wouldn't recommend you use that. you really want something that is going to support your ankle.

me :]
i've ruined shoes by dancing on anything besides hardwood or dance floors. please be careful. If you do work on yoga mats - — ONLY RELEVES! or you will ruin your shoes………
work on getting stronger tho. try to get a good floor to work on!
