Thanks for all your help! Its great advice. I'm not on pointe yet. My teacher insists on our feet being strong enough to go straight into dancing en pointe. Thanks for all your help

Can someone please give me some tips and exercises for strengthening my feet and toes for pointe? Im 15 and I've been doing ballet for nearly 12 years. My teacher says my first two toes are strong enough for pointe but i need to strengthen and straighten the rest of them. I have tried toe tape, therabands and drumming my toes and nothing seems to help. Can someone please Give me some help?
