How to get a better pointed toe for ballet?

Question by ~ Sarah: How to get a better pointed toe for ballet?
Okay, so at class today my teacher was having everyone sit down, legs out, and point our toes. And almost everyones touched the floor, and mine was barely there. My teacher also said we would be doing this for the audition to see who was ready for pointe. I need some excercises to improve my pointe fast so I can have atleast a slight better pointed toe.
Any help?

when you’re sitting down with you legs out an toes pointed, have someone stretch/push them down to the ground. it works great.

What is better for increasing flexibility: yoga or pilates?

Question by muffinbear: What is better for increasing flexibility: yoga or pilates?
I’m getting more serious about dance and I would really like to become more flexible (better extensions, better back flexibility, etc). I would also like to strengthen my core. Should I take yoga or pilates? Both? Something else?
