I have a question do your feet get disfigured when you dance on pointe

[@justrelax6540]

Mystery 101 after some years most likely

[@gigliotigrato3187]

Very beautiful legs! 😍

[@karendalsadik7119]

do you change which foot is in front?

[@darknights9264]

you could, depends

[@nicoles5069]

3rd looked very close to 5th. Is this balanchine?

[@darknights9264]

we don’t really use third, it’s almost like the beginner position of fifth

[@thefab-baesquad604]

in RAD ballet it’s used in grade 3 but that’s about it

[@v41eria]

why didn’t you include sixth position :-(

[@AllieHutchins]

It's not a ballet position and it's literally parallel with your feet together.

[@BlackdogAnnieMaroomStudio]

Questionable 4th position for my Classical ballet
