The Demi-pointe shoe helps to build strength in the ballet dancer preparing for pointe work, by providing resistance for the foot when working. A curved box shaped like a full ballet pointe shoe but slightly softer and the fully soft insole allows the dancer to use the shoe in class and build the strength they will need to dance en pointe.

Demi-pointe shoes are not intended to support the dancer en pointe!

Our pointe shoes are not available to purchase online. It is necessary to fit pointe shoes professionally. In Dance World, we stock a carefully selected range of pointe shoes, and our fitters are trained to the highest standards to ensure that each individual dancer is fitted correctly. Due to high demand, Pointe shoe fittings are conducted by appointment only. To book an appointment please email or call our stores. We look forward to fitting you!
