ballet feet

[Nikiphetamine]

How can I get my feet to point that well for ballet? Have any good tips?

[BillBaileyFan2662]

GIMME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[balletsheek321]

wow i havent done ballet in so long i cant even do that anymore... i need to get back into it lol!

[drummingfeet]

Ugh. HOW?

[VintageZippers]

ouch. 

[DidYouLoseTheGameYet]

Oh I can do that! *tries* OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW

[TaLtUs121]

ITS SO PRETTY

[pointeshoes4evz]

i have collapsed arches, is there any way i can strengthen them?

[aichausa]

@pointeshoes4evz I have one suggestion and that would be to begin wearing arch support shoes such as Chacos. I wear them constantly for that exact reason and I have better arches, now. I took eight years of ballet during my youth and the Chacos were a wonderful discovery. I don't know where in the world you reside, but you may wear these sandals with and without socks during all seasons -- well, all with the exception of heavy snowy/rainy weather.

[pointeshoes4evz]

wow, do your feet look like that in pointe shoes tho?

[KalleKanin35]

@pointeshoes4evz i have a point vid

[TheGracefulBallerina]

I don't think anyone can comment a bad comment about your feet! You rock!

[emmadarga]

I've never seen such a beautiful, flexible arch.

Hope your pointe shoes have a long vamp and a strong shank.

[mirvanadragon]

I thought i had good arches......

[diorwright]

Im Jelly! (Jealous) Aah Not Fair! But I Have Only Been Dancing For 4 Years.Next Year Will B My 5th I Start Next Week But Not To Sound Coucky But Im Really Good For Only 4 Years But My Arches Suck! I Have Only Been On Pointe Since January Tho! But Any Way Im So Jealous!

[FooJaii]

You make me sooo jealous of your arches. Mine are crap!

[aichausa]

@FooJaii It's not sound to be jealous of what a person is born with and can do nothing about, nor is it productive. My arches are probably "worse" than yours, but I don't beat myself up over it, nor do I see this as a flaw. This coming from someone who took ballet for 8 years as a youth, aspiring to go into it professionally and, finally, opting out due to the "skinny ballerina frame" appeal of the dancers.

[FooJaii]

@aichausa thankyou! :D Good luck !

[VictoriaVanhelling]

wooow O_O

[BalletBecca]

Wow, nice arches.

[sorryunlucky]

That looks painful... and why is it showing up as related to a video of flat footed people...?

[NickJsGurl108]

can i have your feet ?

mine are too big and unflexible (:

[jillybear326]

@NickJsGurl108 You can do daily exercises to help your arches. I think there are some you can look up on Youtube.

[itspilar]

holy crap! you have really flexible feet!

[SydMA4evr]

It looks like a hand at 25 sec.

Nice point how did you work on it

Mine need some work but my entire body easily cracks and my feet the most especially pointing.

[cops055]

My ankles keep cracking but it doesnt hurt ... I have been doing ballet for 7 years..is it because my ankles r week ?

[KalleKanin35]

@cops055 cracking is something that just comes along with ballet :)

[sleepdancelove19]

@cops055 My ankles pop EVERY morning when I roll them around. Feels sooo good.

[wondercat01234]

holy shit your feet is awesomeeeeeeee

[DHDanceForever21]

Whoa! Your arch is so high!

[momo4895]

I dance ballet and my feet have like no arch, I can bend my feet and toes to make that arch but it's not as good as I want it, ugh! :(

[18bribribri]

i took me like 2 years to get that arch hahahaha

[11792blueeyes]

I am so jealous. I have flat feet so no arch. I have to work extra hard when I'm dancing to get my feet to even look like they have an arch....let's switch feet!! haha lol jk

[TheAbbeybabeful]

my arch is like that tooo :)

[ballerinagirl556]

wow you have a big arch how long did it take for your feet to get like thaat??

[KalleKanin35]

@ballerinagirl556 I was born like this! :)

[AHHHHREEBAAAA]

[keli1593]

[24qtpie]

[mangamacho122897]

I'm FREAKING OUT. I wish i could do that >:'( amazing arches!! just looks a bit painful

[hechen96]

[yamaluvify]

[wherestheskyx]

[laurenboren94]

[jessie9765]

@yamaluvify um..u sure u could just be sickling rlly badly

[yamaluvify]

@jessie9765 i actually dance too(not ballet) and do gymnastics...

at first i thought you meant about the blood disease thing =_=

[NinjaTree6]

ugh. some people are just born with arhcy feet. i'm naturally flat footed, been doing ballet for 15 years, and my feet just aren't built with that beautiful arch. jealous! haha

[MrAlicejessica]

Im New To Ballet.. Is This Floor Pointe Thing Good Or Bad??

[preetygirlrock00]

i take ballet for 3 years and my feet are'nt that flexible

[Sing0Along0Alysha]

How long have you been practicing?

[raphie1109]

Hi everybody !

I've the same feet that Kalle Kanin35, maybe more. And I've really a big problem to find a perfect point shoes. Do you know some hard point shoes or which will be for foot like that ?

I'm sorry my english is really BAD !!!

[BalletGirl4420]

@raphie1109

russian pointe are the hardest shoes that i know of.

[kjeak]

YESSSSS GURRRRLLLLLL!!!!!!

[DebrahsDance]

She must have big feet.

[MrKLT1945]

@tinylittledancer1997 Spend AS MUCH spare time as you can trying to pick up a fat pen under yr toes without curling yr toes over & making yr toenails disappear from sight. You should feel the intrinsic muscles in the foot working, which is how you will improve your foot strength, very important thing for pointe work. Arches vary from person to person & you have what nature gave you! This exercise will improve arches some. Or have feet broken & reset with higher instep. It's been known.

[showerdancer1]

ugh sorry, but it looks gross!

[SBRJulia]

@saphirejem you cant see her whole leg . even my grandma can do that if her feet are bent. you know what i mean?

[FyreBalletDancer]

@SBRJulia if you did ballet, you could see from this video that her leg is stretched and that her arch is just naturally big :D

[SBRJulia]

@FyreBalletDancer i have been doing ballet for the past 12 years. i didnt say it isnt .just cant be seen from this video

[FyreBalletDancer]

@SBRJulia well i can see it from the video ... since it's natural, you can see it in her arch (she has double jointed ankles) so without seeing her leg, it's pretty obvious that her arch is that big. anyway -keep dancing-

[dougiemockingjay]

err gross!

[101sneezy]

FINALLY i have feet like thoes and i have never seen anyone elce with my kinda feet im glad im not alone in this world!

[ellajaymass]

@101sneezy ya same here!

[ggwelovejustinbieber]

wow!!!!!!!!!!

[SBRJulia]

this doesnt mean that they are ballet feet

[cheyenneyyyy]

whoaa! amazing feet:)

[BambamAndPebbles14]

you have a very good point ! 

[hanaballerina1010]

your feet is like... a hand

[SBRJulia]

cant prove it from this video cause it doesnt show you whole leg. cause if you do this with a full straiight leg then ok its excellent! but ...

[balletloverxoxo]

omg 

[antonia012857]

lol

[bffstruck]

do you really need super felxible arches (like this girl) to be en pointe? mine are not that flexible

[narniaprincess05]

@bffstruck no you don't. Does it make your feet look prettier en pointe? you bet. But I have almost flat feet and yet I do just fine en pointe.

[betepunap]

Is it you or some other woman? or man?

[Mimi9820]

in how much time have you been able to do that ?

[Elise0880]

Trop bizarre ! wow c normale :p ?

[Corrina0803]

i have feet exactly like this. its not hard to dance on pointe with feet like this, though it takes alot more strength in the ankles and calf muscles to support and stop rolling in the ankles.

anybody would kill for feet like this!

[krissy652]

your arches are pretty, but how did you get them like that? i want a deeper arch(im in ballet) and i would like feet like that.

[eatsleepdance141]

you have beautiful arches!

[hellokitty798020]

i have the flatest feet you could imagine and achilles tendonitits....i've always wondered what it would be like to have such high arches

[grkdancer96]

omggggg! thats sickkkk!

in a good way. (;

[anziepanzie4eva]

I'm almost there. I can't touch the floor without pushing yet though

[MrWabblewobble]

Ewwww her feet are sickled

[yooos11]

Never do this, it's just sooo bad for you're feet

to push it over so you can toutch the ground with your toes.. You won't need this for ballet!

[naiburen]

post more videos of your arches

[CXsafari]

omg!!!

[bideeg5]

holy crappppppppppppppppppp! thats crazyy! 

[kimkamaouss]

Ooooooh it's so unfair LOL!!!! I'm so jealous !!

[comedgurl16]

Your pointe is spectacular! I think it is about time you go on pointe shoes (:

[yooos11]

@comedgurl16 Its not good if you can do that, it's not a must for pointe shoes!!

[crazyspaz247]

pointe shoes please!!! :D omg. people wud cry tears of envy

UR ARCHES ARE Phenomenal!

[mydancetv]

That's insane LOL amazing ;-D do you find you go way over your box? Is it a problem? very nice ;)

[lizziemackie]

I hope you dont go on pointe with those feet. Not good.

[divingcrazed]

oh my gosh thats amazing! do you have any tips for improving a toe point?

[63B1stmaint]

that was sexy.

[SuperStickland]

great arch !!

[VC0928]

That is crazy

[eatyourtoast17]

omg!!! how do u get feet like that?????

[CoolDudeSunGlasses]

omg your toes winked at me in the end

[jehsuaabrazilionn1]

OMG u could crack a walnut with those feet.. not gonna lie i'm really jealous. right on tho!

[freeofbug]

so nice feet,i would them in nylon...

[Aprilooo3]

going on pointe with that arch would be hard

[jinx22409]

@Aprilooo3

would it? why?

[chesykin97]

@Aprilooo3 I agree. Banana feet aren't very strong feet.

[princessloverish]

@Aprilooo3 really? I thought having arches like that would actually help. How come it will be hard?

[Meylosa92]

@princessloverish It will be hard because, as she has great arches she need very strengthened ankles, if not she might overpass her pointe shoes and fall. sorry I don't know how to explain that, I don't speak english very well. in dance, the most flexibility you have, the most strength you need. and the most strength you have, the most flexibility you need. matter of balance, the best is when you have both.

As for me I have none of them ^^

[MrKLT1945]

@Meylosa92 Your English is very good. You are right - high insteps look very nice but are the weakest feet for ballet and need A LOTof strengthening exercise, which must be done BEFORE pointe work starts. Over-stretched, over-flexiblity = weakness, anywhere in the body, not good for ballet.

[greenfunkymonkey]

@Aprilooo3 not really its going to be really easy if you have a crappy arch now that would be hard

[4EverNaturalLover]

@Aprilooo3 how? im curious 

[EvanescenceROCKSS]

@Aprilooo3 actualy, the opposite. It is so much easier to get over the box of a shoe. But if you mean till her feet get strong enough, then yes it would take a while. finding the right shoe will also be (or must have been) hard as she needs the perfect vamp length so that it doesn't hold her back or let her go over too far.

[Funtabulosity329]

ughh my arch and instep is so disgusting and ugly, i could never touch the floor with my toes! so jealous!!!

[imsurroundedbyidiot1]

what are some really good ways to incease you arches!? im trying and its not really helping O.O

[MarilynMasonLuvr13]

@imsurroundedbyidiot1

arch supports in your shoes can give you a higher arch, and there's some arch excersizes that will help make them higher, look online ^^

[xharynnah]

woww

[xXBenitaMusicXx]

Wooah ô.O :D Me ankles are very unflexible :( I guess I have to practise a lot ô.O

[boardmand]

sexy

[Lisa13245]

I've got flat fleet, aka no arch, this will never happen for me.

[livismilesful]

@Lisa13245 hi, i used to have flat feet but i started using specially make orthotics that go into your shoes; they are very comfy and are made for people with flat feet. i also wanted to get an arch, so i started these exercises; were i would arch my foot as much as possible until i felt a cramp then i released the arch and tried again, repeating that around 5-10 times. take it slow though!

hope this helps you and your feet!!

[frenchkitty1000]

@Lisa13245 Me too i wish i could do things like this :(

[curlyhairfreak30]

@frenchkitty1000 im flat foot too but i sort of make an arch

and im joinning ballet soon

[Gleadiya]

@Lisa13245

not necessarily I have pretty flat feet so much so that they pronate and my feet are considered one of my strengths and many people have complemented my arch when I pointe but I have barley any arch when I am walking hahaha.

[chelsearayl]

@Gleadiya Woah thats just like me flat feet but in dance class i always get compliments on my pointed foot ;) lol

[Gleadiya]

@chelsearayl Finally someone else like me! :D lol i thought i was all alone.

[KayAdagio]

wow!! im SO jealous!! you have such amazing feet!!

[broadwaynballet]

@rad3212001 you're a creep

[rad3212001]

@broadwaynballet fucking stupid whore. Stop showing them!!!!!!!1111

[SkylarkInTheSky]

That is an amazing arch! I'm jealous >;D

[1dorinda1]

you have the BEST feet ever!

[Mefisto10]

pretty feets

[SoshiLovesSushi]

Point more with your ankles, not your toes, that is bad for your toes.

[Devilmouse12345]

How did you get your arch so amazing? Love the vid, can't wait to see more if u put some more up!

[yara11095]

well....that was jst woooooooooooww !! =)

[LauraRitmica]

uppers tiny¡¡¡¡¡

[willrollerblades]

your stikling

[jahlove111]

that's impossible :o! must be boneless to do this lol

[melendeeeez]

deeeeaaaammmmmmd

[breroxursox1405]

guys its called double jointed ankles i knw this chik and shes like 10 years old and can do it and shes only been doin ballet for like 3 years so you cant say its because shes just dedicated to ballet

[KalleKanin35]

@breroxursox1405 do I know you??

[Malela89]

@KalleKanin35 jajajajajajajajaajajajajajaja

[xsexyminxyx]

@KalleKanin35 how many years of ballet have you done? i've only been doing it for just under a year and my feet can barely do this! :( could i ever do a floorpointe?

[EvanescenceROCKSS]

@xsexyminxyx floor pointe is for those born with great arches and insteps. No matter how much ballet you do, you will probably never have floor pointe. I have done 11 years and my pointe is crap. However, you could try to increase your ankle flexibility, which will help you get further to the floor, but I don't think we will ever have KalleKanin35's pretty feet :(

[ItsEricaJean]

@KalleKanin35 lol,i think that person was being sarcastic.cause your arch is so amazing you dont eve have to think twice about going on pointe cause its just so good.! :D

[EvanescenceROCKSS]

@breroxursox1405 it isnt double jointed ankles, it's called high arches and insteps. it isn't her ankle thats going further than normal, it's her foot being more curved than other peoples. ;)

[njguitarnewbjk]

how the fuck do you do that? i'm a guy and i have flat feet and i'm starting to do like excersizes with my feet and toes to help. i feel like doing shit like this would help even though it's wierd.

[Sirimico]

dammint those dont even look like a foot it looks like a freakin hook

[kbtdancer1222]

WOW so beautiful!!! Just a question ... is it difficult for you to stay up on pointe and to keep a shoe? Because I would think that because your feet are so archy and beautiful you might push over your shoes a lot ... :)

[LiveSleepEatBallet]

HOLY COW! im so jealous! (:

[irenitaaa123]

ostiiiiiiiiiiiiiiaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaa! pedazo enpeine

[fantabulous109]

[S2Brendinhah]

[CiaraJune11]

OMG!!!!



You are not overstretching! Try hanging by your feet from a pull-up bar and work on the flex muscles! Can you hang by
