Dancing on the balls of your feet has 2 big advantages: you will come across more naturally when you’re dancing and you will get faster at dancing.

If you step with your whole foot (or heels first), your dancing will look clumsier. Whereas on the balls of your feet you will feel lighter, more comfortable and faster. The hinge point of your foot is in your ankles, so from the balls of your feet you make the best use of it.
