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.
What are the best pointe shoes around?
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.

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?

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!

Why does my demi-pointe suck?
I practice and practice but I can%26#039;t seem to get my foot to %26quot;look%26quot; right. It just doesn%26#039;t seem to have the shape the others feet do when I%26#039;m in demi pointe. They have such pretty feet and I hate mine.
Why does my demi-pointe suck?
I have flat feet. They are not dancer%26#039;s feet either. To make bigger arches do an excersize. Sit on the floor and pointe through your foot, but dont just pointe or sickle your toes. Do this over and over and your arches well strengthen. My feet are now getting stronger. Do releves and lots of excerizes on 3/4 pointe and make sure you get all the way to 3/4 pointe.
I hope this information helped.
Why does my demi-pointe suck?
When on demi (or releve, which ever), make sure that you are completely over your toes...in other words, make your demi a very high one by having your arch perpendicular to the floor (without overdoing it and rolling forward).
Your arches will strengthen over time, and to help that along, there are some exercises you can do (and your teacher will most likely have some great ones). When ever you are just sitting or standing and not really doing anything, point and flex. Practice feeling the floor and rolling through your feet. In tendu, make sure that you move your foot through demi to point, and this will also help strenghten your arch and improve coordination of your foot.
Also, there are therabands that you can buy to create resistance training for your arches. Of course, consult your doctor/ballet teacher about getting one/using one.
Good luck, and give it time!
Reply:It could be because you have flat feet.
There are a couple of ways that you can fix this depending on how much time and money you want to invest in it.
You can get the pro arch. You can find it at www.discountdance.com. Make sure you follow all of the directions to the T and it will improve your arch.
You can put a hand towel on the floor. Place the ball of your foot on the towel. Keep your heel in place. Use only your toes to pull the towel towards your heel. Begin the movement with the muscles in your arch. This will build the muscles in your arch and give you that lovely shape. It will also improve your pointe work.
Reply:we used to stick our feet under small gaps to inprove our arches... like under the piano (gap betwen the floor and the base of the piano) it hurt but it helped! you worked on it gradually so find a place that it about 2-3cm from the floor and try and get your foot under it as your arch gets better you%26#039;ll be able to get it further under. =)

Any affordable dance classes?????
contact nearby studios and ask about their prices. if they%26#039;re all too expensive for you, ask if you can get some kind of discount if you help out with stuff. do they need people to help backstage at recitals? clean the studio after all the classes? make sets for recitals? just ask if they need help with anything and then offer to do it in exchange for cheaper classes. this will also show them that you%26#039;re serious about learning. of course, not all studios will let you do this but it doesn%26#039;t hurt to ask... you never know ;)
best of luck!

How can I be MADE into a chorus girl?
Have you ever seen MTV%26#039;s made? Well I need a made coach. Don%26#039;t worry I%26#039;m not in hs and I don%26#039;t want to be on tv.
Over the summer, approx 90 days I need someone to help me get into a broadway chorus.
I%26#039;m willing to pay what I can-and more if I actually get a role.
I%26#039;ve studied dance for roughly 19 years, but am not at the level that I should be, or the level I want to be at. I did study voice but I lost my voice a few years ago and probably need to start from scratch. I have studied ballet since I was 2, then ballet tap and jazz- I later auditioned for ballet school - then switched to theater dance and partner dancing (ballroom, salsa, swing, etc) and later added belly dance- I need lots of technique work.
If anyone is willing and able to do it please send me your headshots and resumes to chorusgirlintraining@gmail.com
(ur pic so i know who to look for)
if you know someone who is able and willing -- plz send me their contact info as well..
I am currently located in NY!!!
