In this video I will show you a couple of ways to sew your elastics
the criss cross and the loop around the ankle. I have tried them both, each method are very valid, again, it always depends from your shoe, ankle and strength. I personally prefer the criss cross option as it gives me extra support on the shoe.
There a various ways a dancer prepares her shoes. The more you dance the more personal a pointe shoe becomes. From sewing ribbons to breaking them in.
Ribbons are very personal too , more forward, back, more angled, less angled , everyone has got a different ritual.
There are different types of ribbons too nowadays , I absolutely love the ones with the elastic in the middle.
They didn't exist when I started ballet. When I discovered them they changed my life and help me out with a chronic ankle injury that I had for the past 10 years. The ribbons are strong but they have a give, which helps a great deal with the natural movement of the ankle and activation of the right muscle without restraining too much.
Have Fun!

Hi Ladies, thanks you for your message. In This video as you can see i have includes 2 versions of sewing elastics, you will found what works for you as soon as you try your shoes on. It doesn't really matter where ribbons and elastics are sewn, as long as they are comfortable for you. Always measure your elastic around your ankle so it won't be too tight or too lose. All the best, Ciao Alessia :)

@giterdone9013

Almost sounds like too much or not enough of an angle. Once you know where you're going to place it, slip your foot in to give you the idea of the exact angle maybe?

Also, tying them on when the foot is 50% flexed helps get the right tightness on the foot.

Hey, I was wondering, my left foot is weaker than my right, so my right shoe is softer than my left, should I swap so I use the softer shoe on my left to prolong their life or should I keep my left shoe harder to support its weaknesses?
@lazydancertips
@lazydancertips 7 жыл бұрын
Hi Ursula , personally I always found that swapping shoes around felt like wearing underpants back to front, LOL. Let's get serious now! Obviously you have noticed that your left is weaker than your right, and it's something that shouldn't be overlooked. You must try to strengthen that foot asap before an injury happens. Every time you do a strengthening exercise make sure you always do 4 or 5 rep more on the weaker side, otherwise your strongest side will get stronger and your weaker one won't improve! There isn't much you can do about the shoes, everyone has got one that will mush quicker than the other. You can try to prolong their life by adding glue and water and letting it dry overnight. I think, for now, for you it's good to see how your shoes are braking so that you can work on your muscles. You should be able to sustain yourself, don't let the shoe do all the work for you! Let me know how it goes ! Ciao Alessia

when I did pirouettes (because I ve stopped ballet unfortunately, but I am abt to restart soon ;) I felt that I d hope a bit too much to get in releve, and for the same reason I felt unsafe when closing 5th at the end, a little awkward and prone to fall. I ve been trained Vaganova technique and RAD, and both Schools insist to jump into releve, especially in pointe.

I only need one loop of the elastics, so, we’re do I put the ribbon? You only demonstrated were to sew on the ribbons with the cross elastic.

Hi Alessia. I asked this question before other ballet bloggers' videos but I have no answer still from them... I had last times some ballet classes on pointe finally, but I have no idea how I should lift up myself on one leg in pointe shoes (eleve) (not all girls are doing this class on pointe shoes so I haven't seen the rest)?! Or maybe I misunderstood something (I live abroad and class is in foreign language). I have no problem with my feet strength or balance but really I don't know what to do now. I tried to find on internet something about it (one leg eleve in pointe shoes) but I have nothing. If something like this exists, how I should work to lift myself without plie (on both legs it's not a problem of course)? I work on my feet, ankles and calves strength, with you, with other bloggers, by myself at the gym... but I don't feel the difference at all. Please help:(

Hi Magda! Eleves on one foot are not easy, but i'm sure you will get there soon. Start with doing them parallel, in front of the barre, make sure you are not sitting on your supporting leg. Go through your demi-pointe but don't get stuck there or you'll lose the momentum to go to full pointe. For now help yourself with your hands on the barre, you might feel that you'll hop up rather that smoothly rise, then bit by bit, start with using only four or two fingers on the barre, therefore the back of your legs, bum and abs will work more and more and your metatarsal will gain more strenght. Let me know how you get on! Ciao Alessia :)
