You are rolling in an extreme amount!



[XxtwilightxX45]

you need to fix your pointe. its awful

[CherrySlushie13]

@XxtwilightxX45 um, she said it was her first class. and those shoes are obviously brand new and not broken in yet.

[XxtwilightxX45]

@CherrySlushie13 im sorry. have you been on pointe for like 3 years?

i like how people think they can just buy the shoes at the store, sew the elastic and ribbons on, and they can dance.... you have to bang those things around a bit. they are sooo stiff and you wont be able to get anything done at this rate.

[MrsAmyBoo]

Wow, she's a good ballet teacher!

[alisialovesdarwyn]

its his first lesson so he hasnt exactualy had time to break them in its not an over night job you no !

[ChristyGiang98]

You should really break in your shoes. And I mean break them in not just wear them and think they'll break in by themselves.

[jngwatson]

"The best teacher in the world"?  You've got to be kidding. Her voice alone could cut through concrete!

[Malela89]

@jngwatson well.... mine its like that too she´s from national ballet of cuba, and even do they scream, or give litle punches like in 1:04 they are great great teachers, I remember one class with another teacher (that is not my teacher anymore) doing a cambre or port de bras derrier she grab my bun and pulled me down so I can go further... that I think it is really mean

[SophieSophieAgency]

Google has some really neat tips for breaking in shoes you should try, it makes them alot easier to dance in. Otherwise, I would recomend gently massaging the box and gently bending the shank a little bit when you first get new shoes. Not to much though, you want your foot to do most of the breaking in.

[christymaykay]

dont roll its horrible for your knees and try to break in your shoes

[TheBigf350]

watch your supporting foot, keep you instep lifted, good job!

[missayla3]

[jacka9c]

[Tommo108]

pretty feet

[xPuReMeLoDyx]

you are rolling on your insteps and these shoes dont look broken in yet

[FDFLParodies]

@xPuReMeLoDyx They probably aren't because her teacher doesn't want her ruining her pointe shoes at home. Mine still aren't broken in after a month of pointe, because my teacher wants us to also break them in during class. =)
