He who cannot dance will say: The drum is bad - African Proverb

Online videos can help you, if you already are a trained ballet dancer, to perform better and better. Keep in mind that ballet needs work and needs to be learned with a real teacher, and "on line lessons" will never avoid taking real ballet lessons, with a real teacher in a real school.

In any case, do not perform any work en pointe before you have been granted to dance en pointe by a professionnal ballet teacher. Otherwise, you may hurt yourself (in the worst case) or take very bad habits (in the best case), that may lean you to a poor en pointe performance.

Remember, before beeing an art, ballet is a very athletic sport, and as any sport, needs serious training.
