i know this is just a demo video, but you REALLY need to put your heels together in first. If you are hyperextended like me, I realize that some teachers will tell you to space your heels to accomodate for your hyperextention, but in all reality, you need to figure out how to take your legs OUT of hyperextion when you dance. It is ok for a leg on lair to be hyperextened, but you should NEVER put wheight on hyperextention. I am a dancer and a massage therapist, so this is pretty accurate.

@iluvboston33 thanks for your comment, but I would prefer to stick with what my teacher has told me about how to deal with it, and in reality i physically cannot put my heels together. but i will ask my teacher about help and advice for it, and thank you again for the comment :)

People are always hypercritical on any ballet related post I don't know why. It reflects badly on the community. Thanks for your effort.

I can tell you are rolling forward when you're flat. Not good for your feet.

[chillyandsilver07]

are they a pointe shoes or just a normal ballet shoes???



[misscheriepie]

they look quite low down at the heel, is it just the kind of pointe shoe it is? i love your feet, your arch is so pretty<3

Hey Leah! haven't uploaded new vids in a while! Hope you'll be uploading more :D Cheers!

@slushie211 I personally started out with blochs but if you want to move on to pro and/or prima ballerina you might want to choose a more expensive brand like Gaynor. However, like she said it varies and depends on what your future in dance might be.
