He said he had gotten intoit because he needed to in a certain part he had danced. (Hedidn't say what part.) And having discovered that he could do it,he kept on because he felt he had a marketable skill & didn't wantto lose it. My impression is that it depends on your particular body--theshape of the foot (toes of about equal length are better than toesof all different lengths) & the natural strength of your foot &calf muscles. I never gave pointe a moment's consideration--I'mso lousy at ballet as it is that I don't need any additionalproblems. Tom
