[xxpeacexxlove123]

[twenhafel]

Those shoes are hard to break in.

[xox1jonas1xox]

[pointeisawesum]

really ? i broke mine in REALLY quckly

[pmore530]

love the song. :D

[dancekk22]

you need to turn your feet out more.

[elenalev]

I think the music is by the Trans Siberan Orchestra

[KewsMusik]

ur feet are gorgeous, but i would suggest rolling through the balls of your feet coming of of pointe... just a suggestion... could you tell me what the music is... like what version? I really liked it. Keep up the great pointe work... =)

[sims23fandballet]

jajajaja how is the name of the music (the disk)

[KuuchuuBurankoo]

I love grishko shoes! Bloch was quite a pain to wear but when i changed to grishkos they feel much more comfortable shoes to dance with.

[SophieNeveudancer]

my ballet teacher says there is always an easy and a difficult side, my easy is the left one, the right one is just weak :(

anyway, in my opinion you are good, i really like your arches and your warmers are just lovely, keep the great job!!!

really dont like the music, but anyway, the important thing here is your dancing.

[claroon260]

I added the music in later, haha.

[zoylen56]

um ok the music is wat ur suppose to dance ballet with.

but the same thing kinda happens with me.except im really strong on my right n relly felxible on my left.

[4everaballerina]

yeah, same with me...well not exactly. my right foot is REALLY strong and flexible, while my left is well, kinda dead. dont worry, my teacher says i can fix it. im already halfway there-LOL.

em

[zoylen56]

well i was thinking about it.so i asked my parents n they said that since i was lil i had a kneww problem n thats why they put me in dance in the first place.cuz like my right is completly straight on pointe n my left is just looks kinda crooked at the ankle n is weak.but i never knew i had a knee problem n dance really helped me get better.

oh n i hope urs gets better too:)

[vedamonster]

amazing arches

[minkadapink]

nice, :) very good :) i have grishko too, type in My point shoes :P and it shud be the 1st one, thats me! lol

[Donkeyota7711]

I like the leg warmers!

[pointeispain]

Alrighty, so I am pretty sure that the reason you are not fully on pointe on your left foot is because you are sickling.I had the same problem,I corrected it by doing some more demi-pointe work and just being aware of the sickling. You've said you have injured yourself, ut the demi-pointe would really help to strengthen them again.I've had Grishko and I love them and once my pairs have worn in I am going back.The Proflex 2007 was my last one, had a soft shank, but absolutletly no pain on pointe!

[claroon260]

This is an old video, but thanks. Feel free to see my latest video.

[Jonas4life2587]

Are Grishko piontes hard to break in.

[claroon260]

No, not at all. But these were super soft.

[AyeJreem]

depends on your feet and what hardness you get them

[toastertastic]

when you do the push over in second, you need to push your whole foot over not just your plie. i love your pointes!! what's the name, ya kno other than grishko???

[claroon260]

Capezio, Bloch, Gaynor, and a couple more.

But this video is pretty old.

[senor713]

I love how you begin by acknowledging you know what you weak points are. That shows you are a responsible student and you probably have what it takes to have a great career.

[claroon260]

Thank you. :)

[Broadway3]

you sort of come out of your turn out after doing the same move for a while, but good work! keep working hard!

[claroon260]

Thanks.

[prettyballerina246]

very good, but you might want to work on turn out.

[claroon260]

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

[Dominique6525]

omg wats this song called?

[lolitakitten]

Your legwarmers are too cute.

[luv2dance690]

Yea it can be tough sometimes finding places that sell pointe shoes, let alone a certain type! Many are really good though!

[luv2dance690]

Gaynor Minden's are probably the best, especially for beginners.

[claroon260]

The only place to get pointe shoes around where I live only sells grishko and capezio. It kinda bites. Especially since I've heard good things about many different brands of pointe shoes. :/

[xoKriStiAnExo]

i have grishko's too!! absolutely love them!

[Dominique6525]

your sickling your feet alittle but other that that i think your pretty good! keep working! Claroon260 please write beck!

[claroon260]

Thanks. I have a lot of trouble with sickling.

[catzgomeow]

very very cute! love the music and the leg warmers.. and gotta love the griskho's lol

[claroon260]

Yep! I'm about ready for a new pair! lol

[dancergirl221]

isnt the song sugar plum fairy in nutcracker suite electro?

[claroon260]

It's the Russian song by Transiberian Orchestra.

[diamondsr4ever16]

I have Grishko's too. I love them!

Make sure to go over your feet when you plie on pointe, rather than leaving the bloch of the shoe where it is.

Because then you're sure to really work the arch, and get a nice line [:

[claroon260]

Oh, okay, thanks for the tip! :)

[balletdancer700]

mine are bloch

they r graet

ur arches are beautiful

[claroon260]

Thanks. :)

[lexywashere]

I have the same shoes and i just started pointe yesterday. I have a low arch and my ankles are not that strong. The shank i have is a medium they are to hard for me, i try doing achappes and i cant get over my box. What should i do?

[claroon260]

Just really pull your knees straight. My shank is super soft, so it was really easy to break in. When you break your shoes in, pointe work will become easier.

[dancergirl221]

my instructor victoria lyras of the pennsylvania ballet hates grishko. she compares them to weapons and says it makes you look like you have 2 left feet.

[claroon260]

Lol, everyone at my studio wears grishko. I like them okay, but I think I'm going to go back to capezio when these die.

[danceillusions13]

I have Grishkos too!Are Capezios better than Grsihkos?

[claroon260]

They're both good pointe shoes. The Capezios I had at first died very quickly. I'm actually thinking I might stick with Grishko shoes after all.

[bloomingflower999]

Maybe pointe your feet a little more when just in tondu' (I'm pretty bad at it) but you have awesome arches!! keep going!!

[claroon260]

Yeah, my tendus have gotten a lot better since this video. Thanks for the advice. :)

[EliseCharlotte]

Pull up your body more, you have nice arches :)

[claroon260]

I have such a hard time pulling my body up, I don't know why. I have to work really hard to keep my knees solid.

[xoDancr4lifexo]

ur not rolling over all the way on either foot and yeah this look big on ur feet

[claroon260]

They fit really nicely, actually, lol.

[Fabipunkinola]

I use capezio, these ones you have on now look kind of big.

[claroon260]

Grishko makes your feet look a lot longer, for some reason. I like the feel of capezio, but I think grishko are so much prettier.

[Poisongirl3]

I recomend a different brand of shoe, or a smaller length on the box....Cause they make your feet look kinda big..... Unless they feel fine on your feet....

[claroon260]

I've noticed they make my feet look long, but everyone at my ballet studio wears grishko too and they make everyone's feet look long for some reason. Maybe it's a trend, lol. But they do feel pretty good on my feet.

[PointeShoe22]

I have Grishko pointe shoes.

I got them like a fyeww days agoo.

Great stuff.

I love the feel.

Isn't russia GREAT?

[claroon260]

It is nice, I really like capezio too, though.

[DanceChick41499]

very nice job! Watch mine!

[DanceFreakHannah]

I <3 lewarmers! I have probably 15 pairs. They are my life support. lol

[claroon260]

Hahaha, yay for leg warmers.

[BreatheBallet]

Hey :D You're amazing :D I'm starting pointe next week ! Can't wait ! Any tips or advice ? I've added you as a friend so just mail me :D

[claroon260]

When you're getting fitted for your shoes, make sure to go with what feels good to you, and not what your teacher is saying. :)

[BreatheBallet]

I will . . . thanks :D I've been en pointe for a week now and loving it <3

[TheElfQueen]

when one your feet is in cou de pied and you go onto point with the other try to roll more slowly through the foot on the way down to strenghten your feet more =)

ps. your really good

[claroon260]

Thanks. :)

[ashleigh4you]

They look like a great fit. Cute leg warmres too! your good. xo

[claroon260]

Thanks!

[Briesmile28]

you def need to work on rolling through your metatarsal and you have the flexibility on the left foot... your metatarsal just isnt strong enough yet... but i think these fit you pretty well... do not do capezios theyre too wide for you.. try russian pointes... they come any way....

[claroon260]

I started on capezio shoes.

[LINAKI123]

thank you!

[LINAKI123]

can you please tell me what's the song?:O

[claroon260]

It's a Transiberian Orchestra song.

[sytycdfreek]

love the rockcracker lol

[techdeck2000]

same its grate!!!

[Tallyzip]

your a bit shaky, i advice doing every day some releves to strenghen up you ankles.

you hve a very nice arch by the way =]

keep up the good work.

what kind og grishko are those?

i just got new grishko maya's and i love them =D

[claroon260]

Yeah, I do work in them everyday. We actually have ankle exercises, but because I recently hurt my ankle, it's still pretty painful when I do pointe.

These are grishko 2007's. They're okay, I sink in them a lot, I want to try capezio tendu II's. :)

[EliseCharlotte]

Tose fit you really well. The Capezio Tendu II is quite square, if you have somewhat tapered feet, they wouldn't work for you. Just my opinion :)

[claroon260]

I was dancing on capezio glisse, and those were extremely square, but they gave me a lot of stability. The grishko 2007's have a very very small box, so I think that I would be more comfortable on the Tendu II because they would be in between.

[EliseCharlotte]

then you must be right :) I've seen your other videos, the Glisses looked so nice on your feet. Good luck with the Tendu II!

[LOvEStoDAnCE5152]

roll through your feet more, itll feel way better!!

[claroon260]

My problem actually isn't rolling through the demi-pointe.

[sytycdfreek]

Not neccessarily rolling through demi, but kind oflike taking off for a jump, you have to roll through

[mltplprsonalty]

amazing strength how long have you been on pointe?

[claroon260]

About 8 months, but four of them I was either hurt or out for summer.

[dancer021756]

your shoes look a teeny weeny big on u, try to put all your weight on your big toe. it will help. try standing up straighter to.

[pEaCeOuTbAbyy]

what style is the grishko?? :]

good job anywayy

[claroon260]

I'm pretty sure they're russian made, but I could be wrong.

[balletmeisje]

try to stand on your 2 legs. You're standing way more on you right than on your left!

[claroon260]

I know, I wrote that in my description.

[xHELLZxYAHx]

What AMAZING FORM!

AMAZING

5 STARS!!!!
