What are the best pointe shoes around?

Everyone feet are different, so we all have different opinions. I know that capezio and grishko%26#039;s are good. Gaynor Minden isn%26#039;t recommended, so those are the shoes you shouldn%26#039;t buy.
What are the best pointe shoes around?
it depends on your own foot and what school you go to.


i have gaynor mindens and at my school they ARE recommended for you.


question for the answerer above: why are they not recommended for you? that is the only shoe we are allowed to wear and i think the they are very good for my feet.

gaynor mindens, russian pointe, and grishkos are all very good.
Reply:Try going to a large dance store that carries many brands and try lots of different ones on. Everyone has a perfect fit out there somewhere, it just may take trying on 20 pairs before you find the perfect ones. There are also many types of toe pads that will make shoes fit differently. A good dance store will also have a variety of these to try on with the shoes. Good luck!
Reply:I love my bloch signature rehersals! they break in super fast though so beware! oh and the reason ganors aren%26#039;t recommened is b/c they already have the arch build in so your feet won%26#039;t be as strong.
Reply:persoanly i like capezio glisse pro


they work for many diff kinds of feet


check them out!
Reply:i use bloch sonatas and they have been a really good shoe. just try to find something that will best aid your feet!=)
Reply:it depends on your feet, but i use bloch signature rehearsal. i like them. they work for me.
Reply:bloch european balance.

What are some good pointe-preparation execises?!?

What are some really good pointe exercises? i want to prepare my ankles and legs and toes as much as possible! I do go to ballet class, and instead of taking 3 years to get to the level I am at, it%26#039;s taken about 1 year, so i am pretty good! I told my teacher I want to do pointe and such, but it will take 3 or so years. What are some things i can do in the meantime to strengthen my legs (like ALL of my legs like thighs, calves, ankles, toes)?


I am 13 and am taking ballet, and have for 3 or 4 years now.


Please post videos or exercises and how long to do them. THANKS
What are some good pointe-preparation execises?!?
Do a lot of plies and releves. Stand with your legs straight, and rise up to demi pointe. Do this 20 times on each leg. Therabands are also great to straighten ankles. I%26#039;m starting ballet in September, so these are the exercises I%26#039;m doing everyday. Good luck and have fun!!


P.S. I%26#039;m kinda quiet too lol=)
What are some good pointe-preparation execises?!?
ive been on pointes for a year now and now im 14.Iv%26#039;e studied ballet since i was 3.I found doing lots of rises in first on demi pointe make sure you try and stetch your toes out flat and then do some plie to stetch out.THere are lots of good videos on youtube and expert village to strengthen your feet for pointes.
Reply:I am 13 and have been on pointe for a year now. You really need to do A TON of releves and roll outs. and do the releves on one leg once u build up some strength. i would do like 20-30 on each leg and about 30 with both legs.
Reply:practice doing relieves (that snatching action), rises (going through the shoes and every part of the foot, and 脡chapp茅 (the escape action). these are the basic steps and they will not only strenthen your feet but they will also help you get used to dancing on pointe. practice your relieves and rises on one leg and both for best results. happy dancing =)
Reply:just put on your shoes and try to get in some practice. but be sure to stay next to something you can hold onto in case you slip. don%26#039;t try to go too fast though because you don%26#039;t want to hurt yourself.

It%26#039;s not just dancers who make fun of the MR so don%26#039;t stereotype because then how can you say you%26#039;re better than those of us who do from time to time make fun of the MR? Think about it. And to tell everyone not to befriend someone is low too, do you even know this girl? I looked at her answer and it is well thought and true. Just because you%26#039;re insecure about not being %26quot;normal%26quot; doesn%26#039;t mean you can take it out on someone else. But who is to say you aren%26#039;t normal to begin with, to someone you%26#039;re normal and to others you%26#039;re not, it%26#039;s part of life and something to accept.

Reply:no! of course not! sure there%26#039;s going to be drama, but don%26#039;t go putting it out that we shouldn%26#039;t befriend her! thats not right, and basically, now you%26#039;re bashing her. don%26#039;t do that ever again.

Does this sound like a good song for lyrical/ballet solo?

i think i should do Hollywood%26#039;s not a America, can you see a dance to that? also suggestions for other songs, please!
Does this sound like a good song for lyrical/ballet solo?
i think this song is good for a dance solo if you%26#039;re doing a slow ballet solo .you could have a slow tempo and a fast tempo song which would look good try watching dance films to get ideas from them a good example is center stage or step up!
