Anyone know of any "proper" Ballerinas, who can work enpointe.
There are a numerous lovely models who are dancers but I am specifically looking for someone who can do classical ballet and dance in toe shoes.
Preferably in the Charlotte NC area or willing to travel.

Have you tried going to local ballet classes/schools to ask some dancers to model for you?

MM is filled with ballet dancer/models. I had the privalege of working with several. One that I used is actually a working ballerina that dances with several companies in a couple of cities.

Then again, I'm in New York.

Besides posting a casting, check profiles in some of the surrounding areas.
