They got her new ones at one point and she just didn't use them

​@sadmac356 yeah, maybe she tried them but I doubt she prefers them to her gorgeous toe pads

I pray for mayas toe pad nightly

Would be a huge moment. But I have a feeling it's not going to happen

It's just a literal toe pad, like just for the 1 toe.

Yes. Me too!

Those toe pads are legendary!!

Same here 👁👁👍

Same 🤣 I saw it in three part, when it was still wearable, when it's started to deteriorate up to the point where it's literally strings.

Right!? I am in the middle of nowhere Midwest and even I know about her zombie toe pads! 😂 To be fair, I do dance but started as an adult so no where near the level she is.

My saxophone reed is going through hell let’s just say, and I don’t even wear toe pads lmao

They turn GREEN???

@@stardown223i thought it was moldy when green

Over a year ago I said that I would throw that reed away after the concert. Last week I used it auditioning for an orchestra 😭 I tried finding a new one but they were all bad. Gotta buy more

I'm sorry who is out here keeping green reeds?! Back when I played they'd splinter and I'd change soon after.

Brilliantly talented photographer. ❤

Yesss I would love a whole vid of just reactions to Eva’s channel!

She actually has had her videos on before. Eva was the top comment on the video she was in.

I love Eva's videos!

It's called Morton's Toe, where the second toe is longer than the big toe. It is prone to callousing. Yes, Maya is doing what she feels is right for her feet. My feet are the same.

Missed business opportunity-- SOMEBODY START MAKING/SELLING TOE THONGS PLEASE! XD

She probably won’t 😆 She might just stop wearing toe pads once they are gone entirely

I once met someone who liked their normal socks dead (see through on the heel) and would literally buy her brother new socks just to get his old ones

Yeahhh, it has to a superstition-type thing now. I get it though! I have an old cravat for horse shows that, while it is no longer fit to be worn as intended, HAS to be on my body somewhere when I'm in the ring. Or something bad might happen.

Yes!!

I know right?!?!

There is a gene, but hypermobility can be caused by autoimmune disease as well. I've got Hashimoto's and dislocated my kneecap in high school because I've got hypermobile joints.

I have Hashimotos and am stiff as a stick... @@BrokenMonocle

Was not expecting this reference 😂

💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

Same with me

Awwww, that's really sweet of you to do that!! My Mom had a piece of silk upon which she had hand-embroidered my full name in elaborate script, (having only just learned these skills), and then had sewn this onto my baby blanket. I imagine her as a young woman making all sorts of things for me, her first baby, and becoming increasingly excited as my arrival drew near! She was gifted with this ability and she made all kinds of dresses et cet. for me. She really was amazing in sewing, needlework, knitting, lace-making, cross-stitch, embroidery ~ all that kind of stuff I can't do! Lol It goes without saying that I still have that ever so soft baby blanket and a baby-sized (approx. 7''- 9''), knitted, stuffed doll that she made which was a piglet. It was just the right size for a new-born to a one year old to hold comfortably. I named it "Tumble" and in the interest of brevity, I'll skip the story about how she got her name. I decided that Tumble was a piglette, (a female), even before I was first able to speak. She now stays warm, wrapped up and secure in my baby blanket and I will keep these both in a safe place with me forever!! If you still have your Mom ad Dad (and/or siblings), in your life and you love them, try to tell them how much they mean to you and how you love them and appreciate all the things they've done for you, every day. This goes for friends, too. You'll never know when that chance to tell them will disappear, so tell them, as often as you possibly can, what is in your heart and how deeply you love them, and let them know why you love them so!!! Even when it's after terrible fight, never let them go without making sure that they know how much you love them and what they mean to you!!! Be Well!

@@Unknownentityfeline I love your reply 💕 I actually have one baby blanket that my grandma made that is a Winnie the Pooh quilt and the one that is basically all shreds in a pillow case tied up lol Some people think it’s weird or gross, I wash them don’t worry haha

@@mariethelaw Awww, that's so sweet. No, you must keep things that mean so much to you because they represent so much from your life. The love your Grandma had for you, the new and long-anticipated addition to her family, just think of how happy everyone was about you, and you didn't have to do anything but exist ! Ha-ha! Well, eat, sleep, pee, poop. Lol!! As for keeping it, after many years, it will become too delicate to wash, in the normal sense. You might do more damage than good. My Tumble could disintegrate! So I just leave her as is, she has faded, survived two fires, been lost and then found after one, come close to being thrown away by my brother! She's been through a lot, we both have, but now she's in my "fire bag", safe where I can grab the bag in case of fire or idk whatever might cause me to have to leave in a moment's notice. I advise the same, for you for all you're importent papers and keepsakes, btw. I know you're not asking, but you're like me in that we both value these items in our lives and our hearts will always belong to the times, the memories that they evoke. And so, they are precious to us because they mean so much, they carry so much for us. And more so because someone who loved us took the time out of their own lives to think about us, and spend the time making something for us with their very own hands. Your Winnie-the-Pooh blankie came from, grandma's hands, directed by her thoughts under a desire for your happiness and security, warmth and knowing that you are loved, which came from a wish (to make a gift for you from her), that she had in her soul. How could you not keep it?? I'm glad you did, and I hope you will, forever!!! 💞 p.s. You apper to be Asian. I'm half Asian and your story about your Grandma had me picturing someone like my great-grandma, who lived 98 years on this planet, lovingly making the blanket for you, checking everything to make sure it was just right! Grandmother's and great-grandmother's are precious in their own right, sweet and cute, mothers have a unique role of being closer and giving intimate and immediate guidance and support. In short, family is key and I pray that each of us can have a good and stable one. For those who don't, my heart goes out to you, each and every one. And ultimately we are all family. 💜💜💜💜💜

Ha! I had to give up ballet when I got my first horse at 10 years old. I think the ballet helped a lot with my core strength and seat!! Recently had foot surgery after a combination of injuries to my foot/ankle. Hope I'll be able to ride soon!!

I read "Annette" As "Anna Fouette" and almost lost it😅

I am certain I've seen a video of her doing 22 or 23.

Turns yes, pirrouettes, no. She is a fabulous turner, but the videos of her doing infinite turns are usually a mix of many types of turns. I really hope this came accrost kindly. I never mean anything rudly, and I am not the best at communicating myself @@ilznidiotic

Why does this comment not have a million likes

That’s a good idea but she is like so perfect and aligned already. I feel like she has already got the perfect shoe for her? I’m just an adult restarter/beginner so I have no clue though lol. She probably has like a ritual and has to wear the same shoes and breaks them in the same way etc and would be to superstitions to get new shoes is my guess

Am I not alone🥹? At 50 yo, after years of severe inner pelvic issues and a hysterectomy, my brain still struggles to execute perfectly that weird step called "neutral walk". It would be way easier for me to moonwalk or egyptian-walk, not kidding🤷🏻‍♀️. Take care.
