“How ballerinas customize their pointe shoes”
*soft ballet music*
*woman violently banging shoe on wall*
Omg so true
@@edurneelurreta5087 It really is like that. I just violently smack my pointe shoes and step on them for a solid amount of time.
That’s just how it is😂
But you have to do that or you can’t pointe properly
No that’s really accurate
She had nice feet, after years of dancing on pointe mine looked like roadkill lol
It be like that sometimes 😔😔😔
😂😂 Same here
I swear, dark skin ballet dancers have the nicest feet! They always look good! I’m low key kinda jealous.
Lol
@@yourlocaltexan0887 say that to me I'm dark and I'm tape dancer and its HARD😤
The wall’s like “here we go again.” 😂
I read this as soon as she starting smacking the shoes against the wall🤣
lol! I was looking at that wall in amazement! All the abuse....haha! The cracking sound of bending the shoe back and forth was a little disturbing for me because it seemed as if she was breaking bones....haha! However this is very interesting to see.
Another drink I m giving in stupid things keep falling from my mouth oh oh oh oh one more drink. And I should go. Guess the song
2:57
well, it's apparent that the wall suffers 😅
I’m laughing so hard rn 😂
Two years ago I saw this video and got inspired. I started ballet classes (which I had lastly done as a toddler). I dance four times a week and practise at home as well. Now, two years into training I will start on pointe as well! So nice to see this video again.
Nice
Awwhh congrats!! You must've worked hard to get to that point! Moving onto pointes take a lot of effort, and even more considering how much you need to train WITH them, but I'm wishing you good luck!!
@@chelsearamos3617 Thanks! It is hard yes but I love it 🥰
I’m starting pointe. Any tips on how not to break my toes first day?
I love this comment but most importantly I love that your name is Galileo Galilei and I'm now imagining an old man dancing gracefully XD
ATTENTION!!!! This is completely normal for a pro ballerina. BUT I don’t recommend breaking the shoes this much for a beginner. Pro’s go thru so many a week they need to be broken in a soon as they get them but that also means that’s don’t last as long. If your a beginner and only doing a couple classes a week, DONT DO THIS!! So that your shoes can last a long time. U will naturally break them in.
yes thank you
finally someone said it :]
I'd say a little breaking-in, even for a beginner, can help. I took up pointe class again last year, I was fitted for the right pair for my feet, then I banged my shoes just a bit, breaking the shank a little so that it curves nicely and gives me a little more flexibility to go on demi-pointe. I also asked my teacher how much I could soften the box, and she told me how far I could go.
Pointe shoes are not exactly comfortable, and even a non professional (I only take one pointe class a week) needs to adapt them. A brand new, hard shank will allow you to go up but will not have that nice curve that allows you to get on the tip of your toes yet have the support of the shank.
But I may be atypical, I returned to ballet class at 58, after a 40 years interruption, and had 13 years of prior training. So I kind of knew what to do, and most of all how I wanted my shoes to feel. And even for a 75 minutes class, the time I spent prepping my pointes was well spent. I finished the class and even managed an équilibre ! Of course my feet hurt for 2 days, but I still went back the next week.
Edit : during my last pointe class, june 29th 2021, my teacher asked me if I had a lot of experience on pointe, because "your position is very good, your feet look great, perfectly balanced on the tip" ! Which pleased no end, since pointes were never my forte when I was younger, and I hadn't gone on pointes in 40 years ! And the compliment came from a professional dancer and teacher with a rather impressive curriculum.
So ladies (and gentlemen !) whatever your age and experience with ballet, if it's something you want to try, do it ! You may not like it, but you may also truly love it.
:D

Yo you have me about to died rn I can’t stop laughing. I think my depression is cured!!!!

You'd think that a shoe made on purpose for one specific dance would be way more ergonomic and adaptable.
Amazing! The amount of patience ballerinas have is admirable.
They would have to be made specifically for each dancer, and that would be impossible to do. Some of the more famous professionals have special shoes made for them I think. But they still have to break them in
@@annebelleriedlmost dancers have custom shoes not just principals.
People have different feet
@@user-gt8ft6vy5jyou're so very wrong. I'm a professional point shoe fitter.
The shoe is designed to be almost invisible from the audience, which if why it's form fitting.
Came here after i read "Giselle", a novel about ballet by Akiyoshi Rikako. The very first chapter is about the main character "torturing" her pointe shoes. In one moment of her life, when she costumized her pointe shoes, one of her friends begged her to stop doing ballet if it is so hard for her (her friend thought she was so frustated she started to break and destroy her pointe shoes to death lol).
I feel like most people in the comments don‘t realize that this is a completely normal process. Every dancer customizes their own shoe and what she does aren‘t even extreme things. I‘ve seen people who cut out half of the sole🤷🏽♀️
yup. it only makes amends if ur a dnacer
To be fair non-dancers dont usually bash their shoes just to be comfortable in them
-HiddenCracks- Yeah. But I get why they break in shoes. People break in heels I think, and shoes get more comfy the more you wear it.
Serena Fonseca I meant how its fair for non dancers to not know that this is completely normal
sometimes I see girls take the entire shank out 😔
Her: "Pointe shoes are usually about 80 to 90 dollars a pair"
Also her: "Then *smush it*
Actually they are just making it to there preference so they dance better
they get it for free tho, they will use up to 3 pairs per day cause they don’t last very long
i use gaynor mindin shoes and they cost about 136 dollars
The ones i get are 120 dollars a pair, I literally dont even want to wear them when i get them
what a waste a money
We can put people on the moon but we can't make a ballet shoe that lasts longer than 2-3 days and wouldn't cripple the ballet world with its strangery.
as horrible as they are they absolutely HAVE to be gross and stiff so the weight of the body can be supported on other things than the toes :( i totally agree its horrible they wear out so quickly and they're painful to wear but as a ballet dancer of almost 15 years i also respect what my pointe shoes do for me 😆
That's because we have not put anyone on moon yet

They bang their ballet shoes because they make loud sounds and that will be destracting to the audience and to get a softer texture so they can have a smoothe landing
That sounded so wrong
No toe pads.... she is sooo strong I would have been crying
She has the gel squares at least.

LMAO I love how there is a designated spot for the dancers to bang their shoes against the wall so that they don't end up putting dents in all parts of the wall and all of the dents are corelated to a singular area. It makes for easier repair in the future in case the dents cave in.
There should be a part of the wall that’s is cast concrete to take this abuse

Her giggle after DEMOLISHING that shoe at 3:00 made me laugh out loud. So innocent yet so violent. 🤣🤣
I watched a ballet documentary and its insane how many shoes they go through! I would have thought ballet shoe companies would make shoes to last longer and resist the constant wear!
I don't know if that's possible. They have to stay moldable.
Makes me think of my mother who is a hiker. I bought an identical pair of shoes to her and they've lasted me almost 3 years. They barely lasted her 2 weeks. Normal people just don't get the wear that pros put on their equipment.

Cora Stone Instruments similar to violins need rosin. Otherwise, the bow isn’t going to make a nice sound. After you finish practicing, you wipe the rosin off.

Заранее прошу прощения, если обижу Вас.
Но не могу себе представить чернокожую балерину в роли лебедя Одилии в балете Лебединое озеро.
К тому же, надо делать особый цвет декораций, чтобы чернокожая балерина выделялась на их фоне не только костюмом, но и телом, чтобы на фоне декораций были видны ее ноги и руки.
Если чернокожая балерина будет танцевать в белом костюме при затемнённом освещении, которые требуется, к примеру, для танца теней из балета Баядерка, то будет виден в основном ее белый костюм, но не она сама.
Так что какие то минусы для зрителя при просмотре балета с чернокожими балеринами точно есть.
Но это не отменяет того, что девушки с любым цветом кожи могут быть талантливыми и хорошо танцевать.
Просто, из за их цвета кожи, для зрителей будет дискомфорт на представлении
As a violin player, seeing rosin being broken like that makes my heart break.

I remember my mum got upset when I did all those things to the new pointe shoes she paid for as a gift for my first performance. I had to explain it was all so that I can wear them to dance and she was like "why is ballet so violent" 😂 I only wore them once for a really short period of time and framed the shoes once I quit, and she looked happy everytime she saw the shoes lol
I have total respect for ballerinas, you go through so much so that we can enjoy the BEAUTY OF YOUR DANCE, thank you + you look AMAZING!

Wishing u the best in the future x
ballet dancers are hardcore as heck! like as soon as they get their new shoes, they get to work on destroying them so they can wear them!
Peachykeen It’s called breaking in their shoes, it’s so the shank and box will support them better. For amateur ballet dancers, they don’t usually break in their pointe shoes, because they will do the same with time. This process (breaking in) is to ensure they (the professional dancers) get the most out of their shoes, although that means that the pointe shoes would die faster.
Thank you! I do pointe and it's nice to hear this. A lot of people don't consider ballet to be a sport, but I do.
Unknown Studios no problem. I do the same. ^^
thats what i have to go through xD

That's how it works.... Those shoes are made of canvas what do you expect?
Who tf says ballerinas are aren’t aggressive? They’re routinely depicted as cutthroat and competitive
WOW! That’s insane how much work goes into breaking in a new pair just to use comfortably for such a short time!
I admire these hardworking girls!

Also me: Actually how do they customize their pointe shoes?
Same tho

God ballet looks so painful it’s incredible how people can do that. You got my respect for sure!
It’s very painful lmao
You get used to it after a while. You build up callouses which stop it hurting as the skin on your feet hardens. The worst part is when you have an ingrown toenail and have to dance on it
The first time in my life someone has said that and it made my day :)
I don’t use pointe shoes, i use flat ballet shoes, but ballet makes my arms and legs hurt

haha true
I watched this 10000000 times and it never gets boring lol
So sad we haven't figured out a way to make the pointe shoes completely customised, more comfortable and long lasting. 😕
Well, as she said in the video, they’re already quite expensive per pair, and customising them would make them even more costly, and it’s basically impossible to make them long lasting since ballerinas have to bend their feet so much, and any strong material wouldn’t be comfortable :)
Im sure there's a way, but that'd be too convenient. Kinda like how F1 tires suck on purpose.

I have watched this video more times then I would like to say. I can’t tell if I keep coming back just because of how satisfying it is to see this routine or just because of how beautifully she dances
honestly im suppprised that someone hasn't come up with a better design for more durable pointe shoes that are also suitably flexible. its the 21st century we have the Enginereing knowledge.
HexManiacMaylein they have. They’re Gaynor Minden pointe shoes and they’re fantastic. NYCB famously doesn’t use them because Peter Martins hates them. But they’re amazing shoes, the technology and the material are so good, they were created by a former dancer.
My #1 thought while watching this.
HexManiacMaylein but her feet don’t look like they’re hurting, she just has to customize them
HexManiacMaylein there are Gaynor Mindens, they’re more durable.
HexManiacMaylein
Dancers have different preferences that would they will feel more comfortable with. So pointe shoes that are suitably flexible wouldn’t really work. Other ballerinas want them dead, hard, etc. So I’d say ballerinas would prefer customizing then instead of having a ready made one that they wouldn’t feel comfortable with.

My mother was a student of ballet as a child. It was never an option for me. I never understood why until friends who took ballet danced en pointe. My mother was concerned that ballet would ruin my feet. I did study ballet as an adult, and enjoyed it a great deal. One of the students in my classes was an older dancer. She said that I had "great feet". I laughed, and asked what she meant. "If you had been my student, I'd have encouraged you to continue your studies. Most students don't have perfect feet. You do. You would have done well en pointe." When I told my mother, she told me that she knew that, and she didn't want me to be "bound" to ballet like some of her dance class mates. My mom didn't have good memories, so I never got the chance as a child. I was a good dancer as an adult. I never was good enough to dance en pointe.

Lovely. Bring back memories.
Regular studio only dancers try to make their shoes last a few months so they don’t do this and wait till they break in on their own but professionals need them to be flexible and only need them to last for one performance so they can do this...unless you are a professional or your teacher said you could do NOT do this to your shoes because they are WAY too expensive to have to buy new ones right away
@penile 1 Yeah, non-professional dancers still 'break them in' so to speak, they just don't do it to the same extent that professional dancers might. It is true that non-professionals try to make their shoes last longer though.
@penile 1 You are so loud and wrong in this comment section. It's really obnoxious.
Annika Dalley Yes, because they’re too expensive to break😂
yeah, i would assume most professional studios get them for free so that the pros can use them to their full extent and not worry about being careful not to let them die too quickly
It depends honestly of your foot strength and curve, I break the boxes but not the demi-pointe and just a little bit the shank because I have quite a strong and curved foot, so it really depends
It's insane that she can make putting on shoes graceful.
Not to be weird, but she has lovely feet for a pro dancer. I've been dancing en pointe for 4 years and my feet look bruised and skeletal.

She has the most beautiful feet I have ever seen on a ballerina. It must be the "second skin" bandage and paper towels.
Carolina Belle I
actually her feet are soley based on how much she bends the shoe and her pointe , second skin and paper towels are there so she doesnt get blisters
i dance in nyc on pointe daily:)
no.. almost every dancer needs padding not the same and thats problably one of the weakest padding ive seen. shes really good
She probably not an atual ballerina cause she does not kniw how to handle a point shoe
you cant even spell pointe.
It’s just so elegant. I love this!

Watching you dance gives me goosebumps. You are amazing.
Lowkey obsessed with how neat her stitches are wow
I don't care how many shoes you go through, the question is: HOW MANY WALLS DO YOU GO THROUGH? That cannot be cheap.
Eh fixing dents in holes in the walls is pretty easy
that is funny
it’s really just drywall some spackle patching will do the trick within a matter of hours.
Yea...I was annoyed by that. I’ve never seen anyone in ballet damage walls to break in their shoes. 😑🙄 I’m sure the repair cost is reflected in the ticket prices.
You honestly think she would be banging her shoes on the wall if it weren't allowed for her to do so? I'm more annoyed by these silly criticisms coming from viewers who have absolutely no idea what they're talking about.
0% of the comments: this is stupid theyre ruining the shoes
100% of the comments: you guys aren't dancers! This is normal!
now: 100% *EXTREME WALL BANGING*

wow her feet look amazing for a ballerina i’m a gymnast and my feet are constantly bruised and blistered and all veiny but hers are like immaculate lmao
same and your hands are full of rips and calk( but chalk washes off )
My feet are always bruised from ballet
Her feet are the same as yours, the melanin just hides varicose veins and surface bruising. It also looks like she takes additional conscious care of her toes to avoid the typical dancer/gymnast ugly foot syndrome.
Guys .. you can still see bruising on black skin .
Jewelzbabiii guys let me be offended.... Shut up. No one said you cant. But they have to be more serious than any little thing that shows up on white people - love a black person.
