The Perfect Pointe Book
By Lisa Howells
$47.77
The 'Perfect Pointe Book' is a 124 page downloadable 'e-book' manual created by Lisa Howell, dance physiotherapist. It takes the girls systematically though a series of tests and exercises, organised into four easy stages, and is rapidly finding its way into the eager hands of the worldwide online dance community.
Each stage has at least two tests for the dancer to complete, with clear photographs and a check-list to ensure all parts of the test are performed correctly. The tests are followed by detailed descriptions of what each weakness identified may mean, and a program of exercises, all beautifully illustrated, that address each of these areas. The focus is on education, including the anatomy of each area, as well as exactly why strength in that area is so vital.

I purchased The Perfect Pointe Book and wanted to thank you for the foot exercises and all the tips and answers to questions. You have been so much help to me and my feet!

"I'm just starting my work on pointe and your tips are helping me a lot. I'm more stable on pointe and more satisfied while I work. Those tips are something that even my teacher didn't know. So thank you. It was really great idea to help people like this."

"Though The Perfect Pointe Book is written for young dancers who are just getting started, I have found the information to be a great resource to share with my university dancers. The pre-pointe assessments, descriptions of common problems and suggestions for strengthening exercises are particularly useful. Your emails on a variety of topics are informative and often timely. A student had just asked me about Achilles tendon problems when your email on the subject arrived. It made my job easy to just print it off and hand it to her. The students really liked your video on breaking in pointe shoes. Most said that they had not been taught to do that properly. Thank you for your book, your emails and your informational videos. You are providing a much needed service.
