I love how she didn't get down from the releve until you told her she could. Ballet class conditioning xD

god i WISH someone this well informed helped me pick out pointe shoes for the first time. a pointe shoe fitting is s literal DREAM. (i knew literally nothing of pointe shoes when i got my first like,,, three pairs? and still close to nothing for the next two)

I have extremely hyperextended knees, it's horrible to get correctly on pointe. Everyone think it's beautiful but they don't know how hard it is for the dancer.

It's really important for girls Going On Pointe for the first time to have the best shoes possible. It's a big deal for these girls to get their first pair of pointe shoes and I'm glad you were able to help them out. Doing point is not easy, it requires years of practice and preparation. You guys do an amazing job helping these dancers

Y’all I just got my first pair today! Props to Josephine for hyping me up for 3 years! 🥳🥳🥳

I just got my pointe shoes today! Every time the fitters told me to do something, I already knew because I've been watching all these videos 😂😂😂 for toe pads I got the Ouch Pouches too. Love your videos Josephine!!!

I remember watching this a couple years ago and seeing all the comments saying "just got my first pair!" Or "about to get my first pointe shoes!!" And thinking to myself, wow, I can't wait until it's my turn. And now I get to be one of the commenters I looked up to because I'm getting my first pair on Monday! Still feels so surreal 🥰

I absolutely love watching your videos! I am NOT a ballerina, nor have anything to do with it, but...I am a cosmetologist that works with feet in addition to hair. I know it doesn’t seem too relevant, but...I must say, your knowledge and ability to talk through your decisions have made me more attentive to individual feet and help me identify a lot of walking habits and patterns with clients!

I’m so excited! I’m getting mine tomorrow. I’ve been dancing at my studio for almost 7 years now. I’ve been dreaming of getting these shoes sense I knew what they even were when I was about 3. Tomorrow is gonna be the start of a new journey for me!

I know how important it is to have the best pointe shoes possible. When I had my first pair the lady just slapped the shoes on and said '' Ah, that'll do!'' After the first hour the broke and I twisted my ancle! That girl is so glad to be having you guys fit her for her first pair, I wish I could of had someone as good as you 😃

Nice!! My 1st pointe shoes were soft grishkos, but they were a little too tapered. I have really hyper extended knees and remember how difficult it was too get onto the box 😅

She should do a fitting for flat feet i have flat feet and its hard but if you work really hard you get pretty and strong feet.

I am going on pointe soon and going to get my fitting! You have really made me understand more and you have given me tips so Thank you 🙏

I’ve been practicing ballet since I was 4 or 3 years old I’m 11 now and I’m getting my pointe shoes in two more days, and I’m really exited 😃

I would like to know which brands of shoes you were putting on her...

I’m getting my first pointe shoes on Tuesday! I’m so happy.

I love these videos they are so helpful and It took a lot of stress off of me because I knew what to expect at the fitting!

I'm getting fitted on March 16, IM SO EXCITED!!!

I’m so excited, I’m getting my pointe shoes in three days!

where did she get that skirt.its beautiful

I've been dancing since I was about 4 (I'm almost 11 now) and I was supposed to get my pointe shoes in March, but thanks to COVID, I'm still waiting.

Yay!!! Love this video

I’m just watching this but i have my first fitting friday and I’m sooooo excited

My favorite pointe shoe shop !

im so excited for today bc im getting my first pair today and am binging your vids to prepare :)

THAT SKIRT IS SO PRETTY

I think I would struggle if I ever had pointe shoes (saying that I'm 18 and only just started ballet), only because I have hyperextended knees that still lock out sometimes and I have really weird large spaces in between my 1st, 2nd and 3rd toe on my left foot. I also have Greek feet!!!!

My daughter is getting pointe shoes and she is so excited😊

I’m getting fitted by you on October 11 so excited

I just ordered some Ballet point shoes and they’re coming 10th November and I’m watching this video for some a help and some information about when your first point shoes you need the right size

LOVED this !!! thank you

I love your video so much❤❤❤

it’s been 10 trillion years since i took ballet so the fact i understood basically all of the vocab bc of marching band is great

I'm getting fitted tomorrow;)

I’m getting fitted for my first pair today! IM SO EXCITED!!!👍🏼😀😃😄😁😆☺️😊🤡

Those are really nice point shoes

ughhhhh I'm so exited for my first point shoes fitting even tho it'll probably take a few months 😓 if only I knew I wanted to do ballet earlier I would probably already be on point for like 2-3 years now 😭😭

idk why I’m watching this even tho I’m not in ballet class....yet

Omg that helps my daughter so much 😁 thanks 🙏

Such a great channel! love your videos....so informative and your personality is lovely. Thanks for these!

Excellent...thank you

Im getting fitted today for my first pair at the shop in orange county

I’m getting my first pair tomorrow 😅

I just got fitted today!

I was there!!!

I wish you would mention in your videos which shoes they are! :)

My first pair was Capezio Developpes.

This is the second one of these videos I've watched. I thought the first one was brilliant. I'm worried now though, because if the lovely girl in this video was one of my students I wouldn't be putting her on pointe yet. -She doesn't seem to have the strength. And if I were a pointe shoe fitter, I'd be hesitant to sell her a pair of pointe shoes for at least another 6 months...

I've always loved Grishkos and hated Russian pointes but the last pair I bought were Russian point and I love them

I just got my point test and I exited!

I just got mine today

i just got my first pair today! i got bloch lisse

ROSEVILLE?!! I'm from Roseville originally

I go to NCDC for ballet classes too

I cant wait until I get my first pair!!!! This really helped me be a little more prepared for this when the time comes. Still waiting after nine years though 😅

I wish i was able to get fitted by you but i live in New Zealand :( i got fitted for my first shoe a year ago at the dancers wardrobe. Ive watched so many point shoe fitting videos and just videos about going en pointe so I expected the lady to ask questions and actually look at my feet but she didn’t. All she did was measure how long my foot is. She gave me 5 shoes and i kept saying i needed a wider shoe and that it doesn’t feel right and how i don’t feel like im going over completely. She said that that was the widest shoe they have. So now im wearing shoes that don’t feel right. Over time ive gotten used to them and honestly think that what i felt on the day was just first-time-on-pointe pain haha but i really think if i went to a different place to get fitted then I would’ve gotten a better shoe for me :( i wear block European balance and im going for another fitting for my second shoe soon. Do you have any suggestions on figuring out what feels and looks good on your own? Because the fitter was not a lot of help

I got my first shoes 1 week ago I got a hard shoe because I have super strong and flexible feet. I got the Bloch heratige extra hard

I would die to be able to find a pointe shoe fitter like you!! The first pair I got was from a specific brand (so they only sold different models of their own shoes, not other brands'), and the vamp (or wing?) was WAY too short and my feet bent from the toes instead of the top of the foot. I have a much better fitting one now but I still think it could fit me better... If only my country had decent pointe shoe sellers and fitters.

I literally go to that studio 😂

I live about 30 minutes from Roseville!

Next year will be my seventh year of dance and I’ve been doing ballet for seven years do you think that next year would be a good time to start pointe?

question: based on the video i seem to have very similar legs feet and knees so i was wondering if there was anything i could do to prepare myself from point since everyone says its super hard when your like this?

Is it good to order them online cuz i dont have them in towns near me

Can you do a point shoe fitting for Greek feet? I don’t want to ruin my feet for when I go up on point later.

Hi Josefine, you could say what is the brand and model of pointe shoes that you are using on her.

i’ve only danced for 1,5 years but my teacher cleared me anyways, but i am very nervous that i wont be good enough

I have a question but I'm not sure to ask it so here seems to be the best one. I want to take ballet just for fun but I have the worst turnout ever because of medical reasons and my feet naturally turn in. Do I still have a chance at getting good at ballet?

My 2nd toe is longer than my first and I was wondering if that was a problem?

I’m super nervous I’m getting fit today w my brother!! Idk what I’m going to get Bloch or capzio

What’s the best point shoe for low arch, very compressible foot, long 2nd toe, and pretty flexible bend?

Hi! I don’t have pointe shoes yet, but how would one learn to sew their ribbons, or break in the shoe?

That skirt i so pretty! Anyone know where you can get it?

Hi where is her wrap skirt from? x

Omfg i wanna do ballet now!

I got my first pair about 3 months ago. I’m only able to go over my box when my feet are really close (like in fifth). I’m flat footed, but it’s not extreme, and my arch has gotten progressively better since I started ballet. Both my feet are completely different (one is longer than the other, and only one foot have the up turned toe, my toes are slightly more angled out on my right foot). My pointe shoes also hurt my little toe. Does anybody have any tips or pointe shoe recommendations to help me? I currently wear Grisko 2007 super softs and have Egyptian feet.

Do you just fit shoes in US or you go to other countries too?

I have the same skirt as her😂💗

Has anyone heard of/tried Siberian Swan pointe shoes? I just came across them online and I'm intrigued

This was three years ago, I would love to see you fit her again after all this time

Where is ur shop I would like to vistit

I wish I could go to the pionte shop because I'm gonna become a ballerina and want ballet shoes

Hi Josephine!! I'm 14 and this is my first pair of pointe shoes !! In sri lanka we don't hv any options...like it's d same shoe for everyone!! I have a performance in two days and I think my shoe is already dead !!!!!!! How can I know if my shoe is dead or not ?

Hello! I am just starting my pre pointe journey and am not ready for pointe shoes yet. When I gain my knowledge, Strength and flexibility, I would like to purchase a pair of pointe shoes. I live in a small town. Can I get fitted for pointe shoes online, or do I need to find a place that physically fits for pointe shoes? Thank you!

Hi josiphein (I spelt ur name wrong sry) i just got accepted for my first pair I’m so exited is there any shop u think i should go to cus I’m going to italy thanks

I’m getting my first pair of pointe shoes, but I’m getting them from Amazon first, and then I’m gonna really spend money on my second pair.

I have a flat foot so it’s really hard to get on point

Can u wash pont shooows

Does anyone know if new, still in the packaging pointe shoes, Gaynor in particular weaken over time? The dance wear store I used to work in has closed and we still have a lot of Gaynor pointe shoes that are probably in the 5-10 yrs old range, still in the plastic and in the bags that we want to try to sell if they are still usable, even if it's just for class

Pls male a video on What to do if you want to measure your feet for point But you don't have any rulers at home or anything

Hi!

my first pair were russian pointe and not gunna lie it wasn’t the bet choice my by me or the lady fitting me but hey now i have like real strong feet

I’m getting pointe shoes

was dancing since I was 4 years old and loved it but I had to stop Ballet at 9 years old because of the on going drought where I lived and money was tight so we couldn't afford lessons. I'm 13 now, and now that the drought has subsided, would it be ok to get back into dance???

Have you ever done a video on crossdressing in ballet for little boys?(her age)

do fungal toenails make pointe work hard?

Anyone have answer for me? I’ve never done ballet I do acro, jazz, tap, and hip hop hate hip hop I wanted to do ballet not hip hop but not enough people wanted too do it and I’m upset but because I can’t I practice at home when I was fitted for my ballet flat before I was told there was no ballet I was told my the fitter I have a great turnout and pointe and I can walk on my toes do u think I could get pointe shoes away? And do you need a letter or approval from a teacher first?

Oh my gosh.. I have never heard of another dancer who's big toe also slopes up.. I've never found a pair of point shoes that doesn't cause major pain on the top of my toe/toenail. I even lost a nail because of it. Hopefully they can help me too over a virtual fitting

What if you want to Measure your feet at home and you don't have any tools and you don't have a rulers

How do ballerinas learn to go on pointe before they’ve gotten their first pair of pointe shoes?

I want to know how long she has been doing ballet and how old she is.
