[bigblueeyedgurl97]

Really beutiful!!! Great job(: sorry about the fact that you got hurt:(

[shaunastewart22]

This is very goood bearing in mind that you had an acident!:)xxxxxx

[101balletfreak]

y dont u dance any more?



[1238ilovetodance]

You have very nice arches. I made the mistake of getting capezios. They lookes terrible on me. But you look very nice on you.

[alise54321]

so dead

[fireworkdancer]

You have really good arches

[jesseytrocchia]

those are abit better ...should be wearing plie II

[jesseytrocchia]

maybe because you kept wearing the wrong pointe shoes sweety...

[MeetMyMonster]

Ohh why dont you dance anymore :( what a shame :(

[MUSICisLIFE1429]

I have tried gaynor mindens and blochs but my toes always hurt unbearably!!! Somebody please help

[noybw333]

@MUSICisLIFE1429 were they fitted for you? i heard gaynor mindens are supposed to be incredibly comfortable. if you ordered them online try going into a dance shop next time to have a professional size you. if you did do that, try someone else? or tell them the issuse your having.

[MUSICisLIFE1429]

@noybw333 i dont really know... i went in and i tried a couple pairs and the lady said this particular pair was fine. i wasnt sure about it, but i was stupid and bought them anyways. i think theyre just the wrong fit, but i havent been able to go get new ones, so im stuck with them

[noybw333]

@MUSICisLIFE1429 :( ? try lots of different padding if they're too big i guess, and itf they're too tight try to stretch them (though Gaynor Midens claim to be un-stretchable, lol so good luck) I'm sorry, those are pricey too!

[californiagirlsabm]

just a btw they were dead D E A D

[claroon260]

@californiagirlsabm Thanks, but I knew two years ago that they were dead. ;)

[Ilovepointe134]

y dint you dance u r so good

[AmiFey]

You were great, especially when you take into account your injury and the fact that you were still fairly new. It's a real shame you've stopped dancing.

[balletgymstar]

I tore one ligament and that killed! I can only imagine what 2 would be like! You have a gr8 arch! Well done

[BarbieGirlsPurple]

but why don't u dance anymore

[PinkIce2335]

Yea...Why not?

[TheSims2PCD]

yeah i agree, you should keep going on with ballet it really fits you.

[4evadance16]

im starting pointe in 4 days..any advice

[balletbuddie]

that was soo good u have a beautiful arch i think it would have been best to quit dance to focus on a degree also (thats what i sure would have done)

[Jenny1dancer]

Chica open a dance studio :D

[pianopl8er]

y u stop dancing????????????????

[claroon260]

I'm just 20 and focusing on other things like getting a degree and such.

[pianopl8er]

that is just a little matter i think u should quit when something like when u sprain your ankle,legs got hurt or disease etc.

[claroon260]

Hahahahahahahaha, I hurt myself over a year ago. That's hardly why I stopped dancing.

[pianopl8er]

but when your ankle is normal again then u can dance again,all over again!

[claroon260]

My ankle has been normal again for over a year now, still, I don't dance anymore. I have other things to worry about now.

[claroon260]

I'm just 20 and focusing on other things like getting a degree and such.

[cuteegirl5]

hey, give her a little privacy...

maybe she doesn't want to talk about it...

[97sweeney10]

Aw! are you ok? Tearing ligaments hurt like crap. Awesome job!!!!!!!!!

[pointshoefreak]

i have those same pointe shoes

[Urucacona]

a sapatilha nem cabe no pé direito...saskajslkas

[kmcpommie]

you need to pull up out of your shoes ALOT...cuz thats not attractive. and also, when you are coming down off of pointe, dont clunk down, roll through your feet.

[claroon260]

This is my oldest pointe video in which I was recovering from torn ligaments in my ankle and am wearing very dead pointe shoes. But I don't dance anymore, so it doesn't matter.

[Contortionbaby1]

i feel the same way.. i dont really like my glisse

[mochimi123]

loverly!

[hannahch3n]

i have a few questions because i'm about to go on pointe and i need to know about pointe shoes. I have heard that they are comterable is that true? Is it better just to buy a different pointe shoes? If so what kind? Lastly do you recommend them? If not why? Asked to anyone who sees this. ANSWER BACK ON MY PAGE BECAUSE I WILL FORGET THIS EXACT VIDEO! I will be asking other people just to get a group result.

[Amycakes1]

I just went to Covent Garden in London and there is a Bloch shop. My shoes are soso comfortable. They are Bloch Sonata I think. Mine are really good beginner shoes and they come with a bit of built in soft gel at the toe bit and with ouch pouches too it's absolutely fine!

[MiamiBeachBabe20045]

Yeah, exact same here. My Bloch Sonata's are great!! I have Bloch Heritage too, but they kinda suck. They're too hard... The Sonata's are the best!!

[MathlvrNiky]

your feet and ancles must be strong bc you look great I would be careful when you go up in secdont you knuchling and make soure your not silkining

[KamikazeEmo1331]

omg your feet are soo pretty!!

[surladoshortii]

That is very true. you have very pretty arches but your knuckling doesnt help you at all... and sickleing just a bit. if you work on your knuckling youll have the most perfect arches.

Im still jealous :P

[claroon260]

These were really really old at the time. And I unfortunately don't dance anymore. :[

[surladoshortii]

Awe why dont you dance anymore? your feet are so pretty :)

[claroon260]

I moved away to go to a different college and became really busy, and haven't gotten involved in another dance studio.

[surladoshortii]

Ohhh right. yea same...kinda... i quit one studio becuz they had to close and i havent had the chance to get back into another one. Ive been doing warms up and stuff on my own at home but i need to get back into the studio :/

[Amycakes1]

You must! From what we see here you are wonderful! ^_^

[rumpleTeazer126]

OMG I LOVE YOUR ARCHES!!

[deppHEARTme]

ur feet are more amazing than i thought they would be ! i was wondering, i have noticed i have had the same problems as you, weaker left ankle and slight sickling in the left also (not to sound mean to u)...but what shoe maybe helped these problems or what kind of exercises could help me strengthen them? because i have seen your progress and strengthening and im getting my 4th pair of pointe shoes soon..please reply. Thanks!

[claroon260]

I just got to a point where I was doing the exercises you see in my older videos every single day and about 30 reps at a time. And I was dancing en pointe everyday. But we were preparing for a show, so it made it really easy to stick to and do them everyday. But I don't even dance anymore, and I would probably look awful in pointe shoes.

[deppHEARTme]

Thank you soo much. I`ll just have to find the time to do some exercises, because I also do piano and my assignments and homework just keep piling up! It`s a shame you do not dance anymore..you were talented. Thanks again very much! -deppHEARTme :)

[bina123321]

i have capezios too! they make my feet lok better than they really are. ;) but u r still sickling on the left foot... but i do that too. just u always have to think pointe the big toe extra and the pinkie toe not as much and that ushally makes everything better. nice work!!! :D

[mdemo7]

i have capezios too! i luv them. they r new and arent broken in yet.

[SophieNeveudancer]

i think your arches are beautiful, maybe its because you are just starting on point again,i mean...i dont use my points 2 days and the third one, when i use them...sooooo painful, need to practice...but dont worry, time pases...things go better!! good luck!!

[MeMere714]

omg your arch is beautiful ... but watch sinking down into the box that doesnt help the ligament thing ... trust me iv done it too

[threefourseven]

great arches! like sylvie guillem.

[strikingsara]

I love your feet & arches! :) I'm jealous.. hehe.

[dancingfeet6]

what about capezio glisses dont u like?? i have them and i love them...i guess we have diferent preferences.

[claroon260]

They're just painful.

[dancingfeet6]

oh ok. well they are the only pointe shoes i've gotten so maybe they are..lol i mean i've tried on diff kinds but i've always bought the capezio glisses.

[claroon260]

They may work for you because your feet are probably shaped differently than mine.

[livetodanceee]

you have beautiful feet!

[claroon260]

Thanks! :)

[bRuNn3tt3]

It looks as if you're "knuckling" a lot. It may just be the fact that you haven't been on for a while, or the shoes. But see if you can fix that; other than that, good.

[claroon260]

This video is insanely old. See my newest video, please, and tell me what you think. :)

[Roseith]

What brand of pointe shoes do you prefer?

[claroon260]

Grishko.

[polveredifata12]

Brava!

[KCfn]

You've got great technique. I do hope that when you dance, you wear tights!

[claroon260]

Sometimes. :)

[ChristyGiang98]

r capezio's good? 'cause im getting capezio's.

[KCfn]

They're good for some dancers, not for others. Pointe shoes are a very individual thing. You need to get a professional fitting to see what works best for you.

[claroon260]

Capezio's are pretty good. It really depends on what you prefer.

[ballerinamoose11]

you have very nice arches. dont sickle, remember to fully pointe yor toes, and make sure that not just your standing leg is straight ...but both of them.!

[claroon260]

See my newest video please, and tell me what you think.

[ualaxer2990]

my God that is sweet i respect dance soo much ya i am guy that play lax and football and that stuff and i tryed that and it hurt soo bad lol keep going i am sure you will go far!!!

[claroon260]

You shouldn't try to go up on your toes without adequate shoes and training. Lol, thanks for the compliment. This is an old video.

[jenj8]

I had the same kind (glisses) and I have had them for about almost a year and now i just got bloch sonatas

[lebronwebber]

you r kinda good for a havin pointe knew to you.:)

[modelingballerina]

keep your toes straight please

[claroon260]

Thanks. :)

[yorkiegilr159]

you appear to be knuckling a bit... maybe get a harder shank?

[claroon260]

These are old pointe shoes. They're really dead too.

[loveapple27]

oh my god i love your arch! i wish i could have them!

[arbie1992]

nice arches:)

[ponitale7]

you might wanta work on ur turn out and not sickle but out wise u have go arches

[claroon260]

I know, I hate my turnout. But I've been working on it, and it's actually gotten better. :)

[NoelleAlysse]

You have great arches but you sickle and knuckle a lot.

[claroon260]

I know, I hate that I sickle so much, I don't know how I'm supposed to fix it either. :(

[EliseCharlotte]

You may not like your shoes, but they look so beautiful on you! You have really good arches!

[Phosh0]

If i were you i wouldnt be on pointe so soon after an injury. believe me i've had one. when you do go up it would be good to point your feet in your shoe because otherwise youre going to hurt yourself again by knuckling (sp?)

[claroon260]

I got new pointes, and I don't knuckle in them because they fit SO much better. I not over-doing it though, I'm only doing pointe once a week for now. :)

[tapshoe82]

that was amazingly awasome! I loved it. You were great. I hope I get to be as good as you!

[claroon260]

Haha, thanks, but I'm really not that great. I haven't even been on pointe for a year yet.

[ilovetodoballet]

your arches are amazing!! but when you go on releve it looks like your knees are bent! but you are very good. how long have you have been dancing??

[claroon260]

I danced for six years, until I was twelve, then took a six year break and started back January of 2007. So I've been with my current studio for about 10 months.

[ballerinababy07]

You're arches are beautiful

but your shoes are too broken in

I suggest getting a new pair with strong shank for those strong feet.

[claroon260]

I did get new pointe shoes. :)

[xoxoSOCALIxoxo]

omg i LOVE your arches!!!!!!! so jealous! good luck with your injury you should probably wear tights with your pointe shoes but w/e! other that that like perfect!!!

[claroon260]

I always wear tights in class, they're just a hassle to put on at home just to stretch my ankles.

[xoxoSOCALIxoxo]

ok just making sure cause there are some girls who don't wear tights and it drives me crazy!!!!

see ya

[baLLETluVguRl]

omg those arches are from the gods above!!!good luck recouperating from ur injury!

[PixieGal262]

Your arches are insane! Gorgeous feet and congrats for "getting back on the horse", as they say.

[claroon260]

Thanks!! :B
