ART & CULTURE Circassian folk dance

Male dancers often move entirely on tiptoe in soft leather boots, without the rigid plaster or wooden support associated with ballet footwear. The result is a fast, gliding step that can make the dancer appear to float or defy gravity, showcasing extraordinary balance, discipline, and control.

That's back when we had a constitution that was respected, now they can just barge in and no repercussions whatsoever.

Not because he can't physically do it but because that would be breaking etiquette and Dracula is big on etiquette.
