en pointe would be right on the ends of your toes (not the ball of your foot!.)
If you were en pointe ,unless you were constantly in professional ballet pointe shoes, you would be in agony and have broken all of your toes by now!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

uhm no!.
the ball of your feet isn't en pointe!.
you need pointe shoes to actually be en pointe correctly!.
going en pointe without these shoes is greatly looked down apon by serious ballet dancers!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
