One suggestion is that you are putting wieght on your working leg - the one that is pointed, on the ground. Your wieght should be forward over your supporting leg, and there should be no weight on your pointed toes. I would ask your teacher what you are doing that is causing this. Although you can pad your shoes, there may be a more serious reason, which could lead to injury. Hi there, I cant quite understand why you are getting bruised toes if you aren’t on pointe.
