Hello,

I have been dancing on pointe for about 10 years. I gave it up for about a year and in that time gained allot of weight. With exercise and eating right, and my participation at the gym I have become 170lbs and solid. What I wanted to know is.. what is the maximum weight allowed or accepted? My studio doesnt seem to mind because I feel the same on pointe due to my strong leg muscles. I just wanted to know if there really was a cut off weight, fyi I am 5 foot 4 inches tall.
When i was younger I starved myself and ate under 1000 calories a day and felt overworked and depressed at 120 lbs.

Thankyou in advance.
