Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

Having a good arch helps when on pointe but it isn't necessary to have good arches!.!. there are lots of people at my dance school with flat feet and they do pretty well!.!. you need to have strong ankles to go on pointe!.!. if you don't then you can build up your ankle strength with exercises that can be given to you by your dance teacher!.!.!. you should ask your dance teacher when you will be ready to go on pointe and if she/ he knows any ankle exercise that they could teach you!.

hope this helps

I have very flat feet and I've never taken pointe!. I took ballet when I was like five but, every kid did!. :D

My friends and thier parents are amazed that I can go onto pointe without shoes!. My friends Mom says that even some people that have taken pointe can't do that for years without the shoes!.

I've never put on pointe shoes before!. I just like standing on my tip toes :D

You could!. Go out! Try it! You never know, you may be able to!Www@QuestionHome@Com
