I agree! I wondered as soon as she got en pointe if Josephine could take a look and tell us WHY they work so well on her. Don't know if that's entirely possible, but I would think if anyone could figure it out, it would be an expert fitter.

Well, when you think about it pointe shoes are 100+ year old technology so if the Chinese factories got the right kind of lasts it's not hard to duplicate the techniques and the materials and labor would be cheaper. Pointe shoes are expensive because they are made primarily in Western countries where the cost of labor/materials is very high.

I think those pointe shoes come from the same manufacturer that does Sansha's Recital shoes. The bottom stitching and embossing look exactly the same, the long vamp and very square box are almost identical, and Sansha's shoes are made in China. I've seen these shoes all over Amazon and Wish and have heard they're not the worst depending on your foot shape.

Some beginner pointe students in the Philippines (where I am from) buy these to save money. If they're not actually dancing on the shoes but only use them at the barre, then I guess it's fine. Of course, it depends on the teacher, but we're a 3rd world country and not everyone can afford $100 shoes.

Actually, I'm also a dancer from the Philippines, and pointe shoes are EXPENSIVE!!! They're around 4900 to 5000 pesos, right??? 😭 I actually get my pairs from Korea because none of the Philippines' available models fit me well. I end up paying even more. 😭😭😭😭😭

@flying-ship Жыл бұрын

"So supportive" - not surprised, as they look like two, big, almost square boxes!! You could probably place them upright on the floor and they will not fall over. At the price, I'm tempted to buy them as decorative objects. I used to dance as a girl, and when I stopped in my late teens I decided to keep my last pair as a keepsake - but alas, my mother, who never was very supportive of my doing ballet, threw them away in my absence 💔 I was heartbroken to say the least.

@shieldmaidenforchrist1310 Жыл бұрын

Pause at 2:20 Look at the shank, it's not flat and it's not pre-arched at the arch. It's bowing from right behind the big toe joint. This is exactly where you absolutely can NOT have any bending in that direction at all or the shoe is dead, you are knuckling and can not maintain proper alignment, which is not functional when you do more advanced steps and not safe, as you are not working your foot and ankle correctly. Mackenzie is very strong and capable of handling this brief trial use safely, but I certainly hope less experienced dancers do not attempt to use shoes like this to save money.

by the way i recognised the the song playing at 3:35 its called od yishoma/yishama and its a jewish song usually sung/played at weddings. the lyrics in english are "Yet again there shall be heard, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem. The voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride."

Those remind me of what Balance European often looks like. (not a fan of that shoe btw) Reason I say that is how it looks like you are knuckling/sinking into the box. When you put your usual shoes on it was readily apparent that the cheap shoes were breaking significantly lower, which is probably why it looked so bad and ill fitting.

They really do look nice on you. Maybe use them for dances that need better support. I can see the support they give. I am 70 years old and my point shoes back 50 years ago, Capezios, were $20. I made 50 cents an hour and had to save and save for a pair of pointe shoes. I might get two pair a year unless "mamaclaus" got me some for Christmas. They were very stiff, too. We did not want to break them in too much at first, either, because the price was sooo prohibitive.

@thegirlonpointe9866 Жыл бұрын

@@jaylasucks9058 okay let me make something clear. You CAN‘T go on pointe without proper advice by an actual teacher. Ballet isn‘t something you can teach yourself. Just because you can do something on flats doesn‘t mean you can just straight up learn it on pointe. Pointe shoes must be fitted by a professional fitter and buying them somewhere for cheap is extremely dangerous. But, in your case, I don‘t even think it‘s the shoe! You just went on pointe way too early and probably didn‘t even build up the core muscles you need and thus had no balance whatsoever. Building these takes YEARS, minimum 2 years of proper training which you don‘t have. Also you can‘t go on pointe before you turn 13 because before that your foot is still developing and can also seriously be injured. If you want to continue dancing, I suggest just going for a real ballet studio with real teachers instead of breaking your wrist. And learn to be patient please. And mind that it is never too late to start with Ballet
