 the male dancer
written by Jas on 03.01. at 05:39:42 - as answer to: Re: Male Pointe Classes by Leslie at I am glad to see others doing pointe but I still believe men should be men. That's why I make them wear black pointe shoes and they still don't do feminine pointe exercises. I exclued bourrees, things like ballonnee sur la pointes. Mainly it's just hops en pointe, land jumps en pointe, and jumping from pointe to flat and turns. Guys also to fouettes except rather than en dehorrs, I make them do it en de dans which is much harder and technically challenging. Even though they do pointe, they are no closer to being feminine. It is a feat of strength not floating and looking pretty like the females. Answers to this message:
