I would choose my words more carefully. Calling someone who has wider feet 'fat footed' can lead to body issues in even the thinnest of girls. Wide feet are usually caused by a bone structure cannot be altered by amounts of 'fat'. As a teacher, you should know that. You should also discuss the differences in fabrics and builds of ballet shoes as they serve different purposes.

@TheLittlebubble12345 thanks for replying. I've been dancing in them and they've been fine so far. I've had not trouble so I think it's alright. It's much better than having pinched toes at least.

@AnnaKin Ok so I think that maybe buying a diffrent brand? beacuse I hade to buy a differnt brand but mine art that good eather but they work!

I have a question. I first tried shoes that were my street size since it said to by them that way. They were far too tight and didn't stretch enough. I tried buying the next shoe size up and now they feel snug, but there seems to be gaps along the edge of my foot. These go away when I pull the drawstring, but it bunches the leather a bit on the sides. Did I buy too big? Will I be okay dancing in these shoes?

@XDRemiXD I am pretty sure he is watching just for the girls. I have seen a whole lot worse comments than this one regarding dancers. Many guys have what they would call a ballerina fetish and get really turned on watching ballerinas. I had some videos uploaded of me and my ballet dance class but I deleted them. There were too many comments and private messages from guys about how turned on they got watching my videos and that they masturbated while they watched.
