but you are in point shoes for a longer period of time, when in ghillies you are usually on point in your step for 30 seconds. Not untill you are 12 or older, though, should you even go on point. Like you said before you need to have strong legs, feet, etc. and that usually doesn't happen untill you are in you teens. I would really suggest all ID's take ballet though, if you don't do! It really does help! -- The Reel Irish Dance Message Board

In reply to: IDGirl 's message, "To go en pointe you have to have not only strong feet, but strong legs and a good strong straight back (and a natural arched instep is important). As for going truly en pointe in a traditional Irish ghillie, (more)" on 16:28:40 06/02/03 Mon
