I am quite shocked that 10 year olds are dancing en pointe. but the girl who did the solo first was really good she has loads of potential.

sorry but i think it was really sloppy and poorly done just in general the way they moved slow it down a little and they are a little too young but great effort i do give them credit.

I will admit that they may be a tad young. However these girls (especially the one featured the most in the the video) appears to be strong enough. It's not like she's falling off her box or anything, and for only being en pointe for 2 months she's doing really well.

For being on pointe for 2 months i think they did a pretty good job. At my 2 month mark I still couldn't do alot of those steps. I do think that the 10 year olds especially are a little young for pointe and they should have at least waited until they're 11 at the youngest. Thats when i started but good job.

I don't think these girls are too young to be on pointe. All professional dancers start at a young age and if they train properly they will not hurt themselves.

i agree with all comments below, but some people forget that most professionals have been en pointe from a very young age. i just got on pointe, but my teacher has been en pointe since she was six years old.

not only are these girls far too young and inexperienced to be en piont they are very sloppy this piece on flat would be a chalenge for these girl s they arnt ready

I have been teaching ballet and pointe for 33 years. How can any teacher put girls this young en pointe! These girls bones have not hardened enough at such a young age. Pointe done this young looks more like a circus act than a performance of the art of ballet.

who are these poor girls' teachers!! are you crazy! they are so young. and did anyone else notice they only went on pointe about five or six times?

Maybe I'm just getting old but these girls seem a little young to be en pointe, not from a strength perspective but from a lack of bone ossification perspective. I'm also concerned about how they're not getting their heels down in their jumps. But the choreographer did a nice job of simplifying the choreography for their level
