Mission statement - Dancewithmary NYC was created to provide dancers with the best possible information in monthly videos. As a fitter, I have worked for Gaynor Minden, Capezio, Capezio Professional Division, Freed of London, and Chacott USA. I bring a unique perspective to pointe shoe fittings with my layered experience teaching ballet, Pilates, and Progressing Ballet Technique. I’ve lectured at prestigious summer programs such as ABT and DTH on the history and making of pointe shoes and how to find a proper fit. My goal is to get every dancer to find the best possible pointe shoe for their feet.
