First attempt at toe-tap. Youtube videos and other resources are pretty scarce, so I thought I'd post videos of my progress from time to time.

  • @CatRoyalAudio I'm aware of that... I think most people are more familiar with the soft-shoe kind. But I mean a purposely choreographed piece showing of authentic irish dance moves with ballet, comparing and contrasting certain movements. Group (and heavily footwork oriented pieces like the Four Cygnets from Swan Lake are more suited to irish dance. battement frappes, brise, echappes and entrechat would be suitable I think... It'd just be so cool...

  • Just saying pratically, tapping on pointe is pretty useless for stuff like wings, because doing one of those en pointe-well 'nuff said really, although they do look quite funky1 i'd like to see you not holding onto something. (if you are, it looks like it)

  • @SobrietyandSolace there is a type of irish dance shoe where it is soft, as in it looks more like a ballet shoe than tap. try typing soft shoe irish dancing.

  • Can you help me? I want to know were did/can you find the ballet taps.

  • zorrorevenge can hook you up, he is the one that makes them, and the only one in the states right now that does, there might be many machinests that can make them, but you have to have the right design to do it, and it would cost alot more. he is on youtube just search other toe tap videos, and find his comments, then instant message him on youtube, if you want them or want to know more about them.

  • Whoa... awesome :D ...wish I could do that...

    ...my great grandnar used to tap en pointe too (:

  • LOL IS SHE A RAINDEER THE NOISE SOUNDS LIKE IT NO OFFENCE IM NOT TRYING TO BE MEAN BUT THIS IS GOOD

  • That's so cool! I sometimes try things en pointe in my split sole tap shoes. It would be nice to have a pair of tap pointe shoes, though:)

  • Where do you get these? I really really want a pair. Good job btw too♥

  • Does anyone else really, REALLY want to see a ballet/irish dance crossover? I think the movements of each compliment eachother....

    Awesome shoes x
