Hey dancers! Please checkout my posts on my @claudiadeanworld & @collectionsbyclaudia Instagram pages as we’re donating 100% profits on all leotards sold site wide to the Wildlife Rescue (W.I.R.E.S) , for the next 24 hours only 🙏🏼 Do your bit today & help Australia 💔🐨🙏🏼

Do I do ballet? No. Do I do dance? No. Am I watching this anyway? Yes.

I wonder if the pointe shoes are made for photoshoots, etc, where people can’t be bothered to hire a proper dancer - like, they’re easy to balance on, look passable en pointe but atrocious when flat, etc etc.

anyone else scared for her when she put the pointe shoes on?

I feel like there needs to be a video where she teaches a non dancer how to do ballet turns or moves (not just the super basic ones)

plot twist: she switches to using the amazon brand pointe shoes from now on

I love how she makes those pirouettes look effortless 👌... Love you ♥️

The suede topped shoes are probably gymnastics shoes. I as a trampolinist use that kind. But then good branded

Would love to see more videos like that! Buy maybe "professional" tutus from amazon or wish etc. 💖💕

The flat shoe with the suede toes is designed for gymnastics.

Oh please try aliexpress. They have lots of chinese pointe shoes brands and also sansha products! Pleaaaase! And have you heard of the cuban pointe shoes? Pleaseer review them!

Those purple ballet flats are giving me flashbacks to when I was little and had ballet shoes that were a too big so I’d be pointing my foot as much as I possibly could but my teacher would still be like “POINT YOUR TOES” and I was so confused as to why I was pointing as hard as I could but it just looked floppy! 😂 😂 😭

me just watching her bend her shoes in half. my doc martens are quaking

I usually hate product review vids mostly because they're sponsored, but since it's you I figured I'd give it a go!! And again since it's you, this has been absolutely hysterical!!! I don't think I've ever seen an actually honest review ever!! Thank you so much for this and I hope you'll review more haha. Oh and while at it, can you possibly look into male ballet clothing?! Like there's nothing there and it drives me to insanity. I think you would make not only me but a million guys out there soo happy if you find some male friends dancers and talk about where they shop, if at all. I feel like most guys just make their training clothes on custom. I'm actually serious, there's a massive industry gap here that no one seems to notice it and like, men are human too, we also want to look good in the workshops, professionals or not 🤣😬 thanks again, you're changing ballet teaching forever and I absolutely adore you and your optimistic self!!

Just seen your Instagram post. I think it's amazing what you are doing by donating money for the bushfires wildlife rescue. Wishing all of Australia the best

What you’ve probably seen with the side draw strings are Gaynor Minden pointe shoes

Love the canvas ballet flats more than the purple because they extend the line ❤️

4:58 , me every time i take my pointe shoes off😂

Omgg! I have the pink satin pointe shoes, for an outside photo shoot, so I don't ruin my 140 dollar ones, and I was very surprised by the quality of them too!

The Gaynor Minden pointe shoes have the drawstrings in the side. I didn’t know there were any kind of flat shoes with them on the side. I just found that kind of interesting.

This was a great idea. I’ve always wondered about the quality of some of these items. So educational, fun and entertaining. Thanks Claudia. Love the new intro, too. ✨

What’s the pointe of this video if you’re not going to do close ups when comparing products?

The slips with leather on toes could be perfect when doing a workshop/classes where ballet studio have wooden floors. Dusty wood floors aren't sticky and no need to worry about splinters with leather covered toes.

Bloch has some flat shoes with mesh in the arch zone, their called pro-arch. I've wore them for almost 5 years, the other day I bought the performa ones to try them. Let's see how they work.

Love you Claudia! A newly old dancer here, you’re enthusiasm helps inspire me to keep moving, every day!!❤️ Thanx for this, trying products for us, great idea, you’re the best!!💃

Sending love and prayers to you and Australia at this time with the devastating fires! 🙏❤️

The black half sleeve leotard looks so pretty

I really enjoyed this vid. I buy a lot of cheap dance wear on Amazon for my 8 year old. She dances 4-5 days a week and grows out of everything so fast, after the cost of tuition, competitions, conventions, and costumes I just have to go cheap on daily class wear. Her feet are getting wide like mine though so we do have to buy shoes at a store. We also live in a rural area and the closest dancewear store is over an hour away. It's really hard to find time to make the trip working 50 hours a week and sitting in a studio 10-15 hours a week. I just can't beat Amazon's 2 day home delivery. I have been very lucky with real cheap leos so far, only got a bizarre size/cut once. I run them all in the washer and dryer too!

The canvas ones at 10:46 are actually widely used in Romania in both schools and private clubs, both during classes and on stage. They are mainly sold in three colors - white, black, and red, light pink being the fourth color, only it's not found everywhere. They are made in China and aren't expensive - 15 RON/pair, which roughly means 3.5 USD.

Your so inspiring and your video on how to get high kicks is helping me out a lot! Thank you so much for everything you do!

i do ballet but i’m not even close to being this good

I've always been curious about what these product's quality actually are! Thank you Claudia!

The s.lemon brand flats my mom and I bought on a whim. My niece had just started pre ballet/ballet 1 age 5. The capezio shoes that were originally bought for her were too too small. I tried to do the freezer stretch with sticks I did to save money (ya, dance aint cheap) haha. Sadly did not work. My mom found the canvas "practice" shoes on Amazon. For a kid with sensitive skin they were amazing! Was hard to get her to take them off. Are they super pretty on the bottom? No. Did they work for and encourage dance in a comfortable way for starters!? Oh YA! So for that I recommend. Age ten and up nope, better off to get a traditional class flat sure.

My personal favorites for flatt shoes are Stelle brand. Especially leather soled. I got them off Amazon. They're really affordable ($10), and I absolutely love them. Amazon leotards aren't too bad either. I can't tell you what I think of pointe shoes though. I don't have them yet. As in, I can't use them yet.

4:57 *throws pointe shoe* R.i.p. Pointe shoe

The camera angles are so wide and move all the time. Its kinda hard for me to get whats happening since I have no knowledge of any of this and rely on the visual so much

Loved this video! The ballet shoes actually seemed good they just didn't show off the foot as much as they could of. They weren't as bad as I thought though! 💜😀

Hi Claudia, I super love your videos. I wanted to learn ballet until the pointe work but sadly, we didn't have the money so I only studied ballet for 2 years. But your videos make me happy though, hearing you talk about anything ballet related. Im a big fan. And you have a great sense of humor, you're just fun to watch and I admire your dancing and personality. 😊 You must be great at coaching aspiring dancers. If I could learn ballet in another life, I'd want to learn from you.

I'm not a dancer but you look amazing trying on these shoes anyway. I've been watching ballet dancers like magicians since I was a kid. You are so so so much beautiful!

I actually bought a similar leotard from Wish for a performance. It cost 16 € and is red. I didn´t expect much but SURPRISE it´s so lovely! The clasp holds, the fabric feels great, it fits me! I even washed it a couple of times and it still looks like new :)

Yes! Have been waiting for you to try this!!

I would love to see you review pointe shoes off like Wish or something (if they sell them)

Her throwing all the things together and mixing them up just killed me inside

I have a little blue star tattooed on each each inner heal, just below the ankle... Because when I was little, my mom would take a pen and draw a tiny star on the inner heal of each ballet slipper (so i would know which one was right and left) So whenever Iook at my tattoos, i not onky think about dance, but of my mother too!! 💙

Hey Claudia, I really love your videos and your ideas! 😍😍 I'm always laughing

That first pointe shoe actually looked impressive!

I was just looking at amazon pointe shoes and wondering if they would actually work. Great video!

Omg, I wish I didn't have to stop dancing and I wouldn't have, if I had such an amazing teacher as you ❤️❤️❤️ my old one used to fat shame us in front of everyone, so many girls actually started to starve themselves 😢 you seem so nice😍😍 lots of love from Austria ❤️❤️❤️

i wore angelo luzio flat shoes for 5 years. i thought they were so good. bought capezios this year and have never once missed my old luzios. they were so baggy, even if I got the right size. I like capezio sooooo much more

I buy my daughter's leotards on Amazon. They're like $3. But she's 4, so I don't think it matters much, lol. They do feel very soft and nice.

I think the brand of flats shoes with the mesh under is Degas. I love them. There so comfy and so beautiful. It’s a French brand.

I was so nervous about those pointe shoe(the pink ones especially)but they actually looked beautiful on you! By the way I love your channel!

Love all your videos. Thank you for evaluating the products. The info is very useful. Personally, I would be wary of buying unknown brands online. I would worry about injury from an inferior shoe.

aaaaaa this makes me really want to just go on amazon and buy some random pointe shoe for super cheap and try them and use it as decoration because no way im dancing in those

Am I the only one who stared at the Leos in the back imagining what I would look like in them😂

Im joining ballet soon! I’m going to be very happy and excited!

Hey Claudia can't wait to see you again in the summer

i really actually enjoy the Wendy Wu brand pointe shoes on amazon, they’re about $40 and great quality, probably on par with the pink shoes you tried first!

I feel so old. When I was in my teens and early twenties, that's how much good quality ballet products cost - except pointe shoes. You couldn't get pointe shoes for $30.

Canvas but the purple are pretty good for what they are!

Do I dance ? Yes do I do ballet? No I do hiphop. Did I still order points shoes? Yes😂

I think brought them exact purple ballet shoes but in red for my acting where we did fame on stage. They were really good!

I took ballet for several years but could not start until I was 24 years old since there was not school where I grew up. I did dance on pointe after grueling exercises to stretch my feet. I had a patient teacher and was the only student. I danced free because I helped warm up childrens' classes for her.

I ordered some pink bezioner shoes just to decorate lol, they looked fine but you could not dance in them haha I could feel the ground beneath my foot but my ribbons were already sewn on. Loved this video, you inspire me so much :)

In a few months, I'm going to start dancing on pointe and no shops are open. I just started watching this because and now I'm obsessed with your channel!

Interesting and useful, the comments. Here in Cornwall it's difficult to try different brands of shoes, so this video is very useful, thank you

💗😘Love you Claudia!!!

I vote for canvas - the lavender's really were that bad! :P

I loved this video, it was really fun to watch

love the new intro!

Claudia please try the amazon Wendy Wu pointe shoes, they are literally just like the real ones i have tried them once for fun(I usually wear gaynors)

I littlerally have the first amazon shoes 😂 Tbh they hurt when u first try them but then they get better They work so well! Still trying to get my balance tho 😂😂

The red and the purple look good ...even better in your size! You are such a good dancer you could make a horseshoe work!

Hey! Dont know if you remember me but I passed my pointe test and am getting fitted tomorrow! Thank you for all your lovely vids they were really helpful. So excited! Also, your feet are gorgeous 😆

Your accent!! I’m in love 😻

I don't know a thing about ballet or dance, but I love your personality so much I watched the whole dang video 🤣

I don't even do ballet. But here I am. Completly Invested.

Omg! Love your new intro 😍

My daughter is 4 and just started ballet classes. She saw your videos (because overly prepared mama knows literally nothing about dance and binge watched 😅) Now all she wants is to be just like you! #dancegoals

Awesome video! I wouldn't be brave enough to buy pointe shoes that way, nevermind trying turns on them XD

I do gymnastics but I love watching theses

The idea of buying dance shoes online where I can't try them on and hop around in them a bit stresses me out! When I was in ballet, the shops even had barres a lot of the time to try out different movements.

I'm a 10 y/o ballet dancer at Scottish ballet and royal conservatoire i watch your videos in aww I'm so inspired

The purple shoes hurt my eyes Also hey Claudia! Ur videos have helped me so much getting through my first pair of pointe. Thank you!

Great video ! The lace on the leotard was actually nice ... Can you do a video putting famous tik toks on pointe Hope you had a great Christmas and new year I can’t wait for London in July !❤️❤️

I'm so glad my daughter's ballet school mandates a certain brand. Eliminates crap like this being used.

I think those purple shoes are actually costume shoes. They have the ribbon on them so they look like point shoes.

U r an amazing dancer ❤️

I do ballet dance and this is the channel I watch. Take if from me when i say if you need support on dance or tips and tricks or outfit choices, Claudia has it all 😀

I loved the video... I was going to buy flat shoes from Amazon but I'm not going to anymore... lol

Love the new intro 🙂

The suede toe ones are used for vaulting (gymnastic on horse back )

The intro is awsome Claudia!💕💕 Your videos are sooooo helpful! I’ve improved my penché sooo muchxxx

Love you Claudia!

Omg the purple ones are horrible! Very good idea to try out these products. Ballet brands have very high prices ,but you pay quality. I tried different ones in my ballet years and always loved Bloch the most.

So thoughtful to donate all your hard worked and fairly earned profits to the bushfires!! 💕🩰🩰

Would you rather have to use amazon pointe shoes for all of your variations or use your personal favourite brand, but two sizes too small? 🤷‍♀️

Happy new year Claudia!

Canvas canvas all the way 😂

Meanwhile I’ve gotten almost every Leo I have from amazon in my whole 12 ish years of ballet. And if you just get Bloch flats from amazon they’re perfectly normal.
