it doesn't matter how much you weigh!. if you're a strong dancer then you've already proven that weight isn't an issue!. your dance teacher would know better than your doctor!. you'll be fine!. just pull up, think "light as a feather!." don't worry about it!. :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

don't worry about your weight, you look healthy and strong!. try it out, and i've seen people in worse shape then you on pointe!. i believe you will do fineWww@QuestionHome@Com
