- Pointe shoes are an essential part of a ballerina's life. In this meditative mini-doco, Lisa Craig takes us through her personal pointe-shoe prep routines (featuring knives and darning) and reflects on the perfect balance en pointe.

Trust us our feet look like they're dying but in reality they're strong asf
Is Phoenix your real name?
It’s true guys
I...... I sure hope so.😰 I WILL TRUST YOU
At first they hurt but it’s easier when u break into them
That’s why you are not aloud to wear pointes till you dance 5 years straight. And it’s true, you train your feet for this.
I think ballet is beautiful, but I wouldnt do it myself haha. Respect to all the ballerinas out there.
Minori Miwa Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
Ty :p
Its fun to me (sometimes) and I have feet problems and I'm a little heavier
thank you!!
Thank you im a ballerina
One of the few regrets of my life, we moved when I was around 12 and I was just about to get my pointe shoes. Never continued ballet after the move and I have always dreamed and dreamed about getting my first pair. Too late now, I'm in my sixties!
Sun Shine yeah I actually have just got my pointe shoes but I am already quite advanced in ballet
Ta H thats sad I do ballet right now and just got my pointe shoes
I’m 13, I quit when I was 11 because the school I went to cost too much money. I also was about to get my first pair! I REALLY want some, but I’ve lost my flexibility. Could always get it back but there is not another studio within a 30 minute radius! I still love to dance around the house hehe
:(
it is never too late to continue!!
Wow so they really stand on the tip of their toes?!?....i always thought the foot was curled into a fist on top of the wooden block in the shoe....this takes lots of strength and pain tolerance it also makes sense to be thin as possible
chi chichi it’s actually not that painful because we have toe pads that protect our toes. At first the pain is bearable pain but after about a year or so you get used to the pain.
it hurts a lot at first but i’ve only been en pointe for 2 years and it doesn’t really hurt anymore
chi chichi it does HURT SO BAD but you get used yo it I am dancing in my pointe shoes everywhere
Then I lost them somewhere
chi chichi yes I thought the same and since I couldn’t find a picture or a video that said otherwise I believed it until now, I clicked because of that’s because I saw it on the thumbnail
it does hurt but we have lambs wool toe pads on our toes but you get used to the pain
I always wanted to be a ballerina but I grew up poor
Nini N. Same haha
Nini N. Im a Ballerina :)
Same for me. Whenever i see ballet video on youtube i'm getting a little bit sad actually
Nini N. Then be a self taught ballerina it will be hard but you'll get something out of it what's UA-cam for?
I gave it up when I was nine and I regret it
Ballet is beautiful. It takes serious strength of body and mind to compete. I met a ballerina when I worked in an assisted living facility. She danced professionally her entire life. She told me she loved it but she didn't like what it did to her body. Granted she was 90 when I met her. Her spine was at a complete 90 degree angle so she always pointed downwards and she couldn't walk at all. That's dedication to what you love!
YES OMGGG i have watched the first one probably hundreds of times! thank you for this!!!!!
Sameeeeeeee
Yaaaa same here!!
hannah woolery me, too !!!
same!!!
that just looks painful
It is until you get used to it
It is
Believe me. It is
...it is
My toenail came off soooooooo it is
PLEASE!!! start a series with EN POINT.
Pointe*
We never cut out the leather bottom, we just break it by wrapping it around the door so it bends but still gives support. We also pour hot water into the box to soften the cardboard, then we put our toes in to shape it to fit. We also stitch the point so the satin is no longer slippery. And so much time sewing on the elastics and the ribbons. Such joy!
her feet looke like it's boutta break
hey draco thats Why I never wanted to be ballerina cause your feet just die
Ikr
hey draco *they're
hey draco o
Yeah, they do have really strong feet but
WHAT MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED???? I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! I was so obsessed with the first video, I'm so glad y'all created a new one!
I love watching this! Seeing what a professional ballerina does is so cool, going on 11 years of ballet and 2 years of pointe!
I LOVE how beautiful ballet looks and the dancers are INCREDIBLE. I tried it but I didn’t like it. I do tap now, but I regret not continuing ballet
Delaney Law its never too late,it will just take longer
Delaney Law I do tap as well although I still do ballet.
Sophie W So do I
Omg same I regret quoting it so much I would’ve started point this year or last year
I do ballet too
Please do more of these!!! They're so therapeutic to watch!!!! I screamed so loud when this showed up in my subscription box
When I wear my pointe shoes, it doesn't hurt. But when I remove them, the next day my feet up to my calves hurt so much.
But It's worth it
Yes!! Yesterday I did my first pointe shoe practice and it felt so good!! So worth it too 😆😁
thankfully there no pain
I am getting my pointe shoes on Monday 🎉🎊
Who else loves the feeling when you take off your pointe shoes after a long day? It feels sooooo good
best videos ever!!! always get super exited when y’all upload!
I use to to do ballet as a kid and absolutely loved it . Unfortunately, I had to move away after my fourth year of dancing because of my parents work and we couldn’t find a new ballet studio around my house . I tried around 8 more sports after this and none was as much fun as ballet . Now I’m way too old to start again ( I’m 13 ) and I regret it so much .
Although your around 16 now you can still start ballet, I’ve seen people that are in there twenties start ballet and become a prodigy
The red ones looked really beautiful.
I will never dance en pointe even if I would do ballet, but I love to watch these videos, because the shoes fascinate me so much.
I got my fist pair of pointe shoes today and I’m in love. I so ready for the hard work and pain❤️
They make it seem so easy! it's incredible
Man you are talented
I respect all ballerina dancers the are strong ❤
I’m a ballerina and you do get used to the pain and it’s totally worth it
3 years later and i still come back to watch this video, thank you to the artists
PLEASE MAKE THIS A SERIES!!
I was so obsessed with the previous en pointe video. I'm obsessed again
全てが綺麗。
Am I the only one who gets unpleasant chills when looking at these?
We have to get used to a certain sort of pain to reach any form of beauty... Even if i'm not a ballet dancer, i can watch them prepare themself for hours 💞
This is one of the most beautiful art forms, that said I can't help wondering if that is how foot binding was considered in its time.
Wow! This definitely requires so much strength and stability
I did dance but my parents couldnt pay anymore😭😢😢 but when i get a little older like at 16 i promise myself ill get a job and pay for it myself but my parents might put me back in ballet i am already on pointe and im so good at ballet for my age but im trying really hard like every morning i wake up i stretch i do ballet and i work on postions,kicks,and pointe. Never give up on your dreams if u want something in life it never comes easy chase ur dreams no matter what😃😃😄
aesthetic tea kicks?
Wait are you en pointe without any current classes?
It's amazing how the body strengthens and adapts.
I grew too tall so that was the end of my Ballerina dreams... But still - the mere sight of a pink point shoe - makes me happy!
I love these en pointe video！！！！！！！
I’m so happy y’all did it again yeeet
😘😘🌹🌹🌹👏👏👏😘😘😘Мое восхищение, вам балерины!!!
Aaaaaah ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ amo muitoooooo 🇧🇷
WOW. I never knew on one toe. WOW, 10,10,10,10,10.🥇🏆
This has been getting recommended to me, so I should watch it.
When i was younger i was in ballet. I didnt get around to trying point shoes. But now age 14. I look back and think where i would have been if i just continued ballet and not gone through a fase thinking ballet was not cool. Now i watch dancers do ballet and i absolutly miss it
何の動画かわからないけどすごく美しい、
Im so happy this got remade
Seeing this I wish I'd never stopped taking ballet classes... I miss it so much :(
Wow tan hermoso, elegante y graciosos movimientos tan encantadores que tiene un trasfondo tan duro, que demuestra el trabajo duro que tiene que pasar toda bailarina de Ballet, todos mis respetos a todas las bailarinas del mundo
She has a great career ahead of her!!!
Respect for all those ballerinas who have to sacrifice their feet 💖💖
Oh my its beautiful!
Great insight !
Awww a new one ❤❤❤
I do ballet and it’s so fun, I love it
Aw she is so beautiful!!!
綺麗だね
I’ve been en pointe for 1yr now!!!!!
Do professional ballet dancers get fitted for pointe shoes still, or do they stick to a few different pairs (for different ballets ofc, like different hardness levels) for each ballet season?
Siempre me ha apasionado el ballet
I’m starting pre-pointe soon.
Thnx for sharing!
There's nothing impossible in this wonderfull world!!!!
My flat feet can’t handle that
Can’t even keep my mind own balance standing normally lol
Question for ballerinas. Does that ouch pouch help or does it just pretend to help.?
wow beautiful video! Thanks
I went for ballet classes at the age of 4 and had a lot of difficulty standing on pointe. I felt that preparing my pointe shoe was unnecessary, but that was not the case...
Thanks for putting up this BTS for "Ong-Bak 6 - The legend of the Watarrka Idol". Now I see why they don't use wires in those films...
I like ballet!! It very good
Oohhhh she had aspirationsss
I never been in some sort of sport I never liked ballet very much but something I can’t understand is the fact that I can stand on my fingers of my toes but it DOSNT HURT I can walk like that for 2-4 hours
I was randomly curious but damn, I have newfound respect for Ballerinas.
I love it
Do you use lambs wool too? Or just the toe pouch thingy? We use lambs wool...
A sensação de superar limite é indescrevível para quem chega la..
Кто из России?)
Is Love ballet !!!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘
When i was 3 years old my mom took me to ballet class and i hate it so much i came out crying and now i’m a hip hop dancer because that is what i love to do and i’m proud of my self❤so for all the kids out there do that you love no matter what people say😊
Ballet is my life and i love it but my flexibility holds me back. Any tips??
Lois Broadbent well my flexibility isn't the best, but it's always improving day by day. So first I wake up and in bed I reach my toes for 10 secs before geting up. When I studying I do it in the ground, simulating splits (can't do it yet 😭) or doing back straches for short amount of time, and sometimes when I walk I do some small jumps with my knees strached (why not?) And yoga helps a lot
Well I hope it was useful! Have a nice time ^^
Well I’m pretty flexible so I can give you some of my stretching tips that I did to get flexible🙂
1. Stretch everyday (even if you’re sore)
2. Do both splits for 30 seconds and once you have your split do oversplits.
3. Stretch your straddle. Stretch to both sides then forward then over. Once you are down on your over straddle I recommend putting one leg on an elevated surface then going over.
4. Seal stretch will be your best friend. Once you are in seal stretch bend your legs and try grabbing them, once you’ve got them straighten them as much as possible until your legs are completely straight (your legs won’t be completely straight the first day. Just don’t give up!)
5. Do kicks!! I like to do 10 forward kicks, 10 side kicks, and 10 backwards kicks. (On each leg. And I’m sorry I don’t really know the name of the kicks, just kick as high as you can keeping good technique.
6. Going down into a lunge and trying to put your hip to the floor is a great stretch for getting oversplits.
GOOD LUCK!♥️
제 꿈이 발레리난데 발레리나가 이렇게 힘드나요.. 3학년때 토슈즈를 시작해서4학년인데 지금 노력해볼께유💞
Wiih... Mantuul 😭❤️
omg she's the girl from Things Ballet Dancers Will Never Say (Or Do)
почему все люди думают что из за пуант ноги портятся личн я занимаюсь балетом и не чего подобного не происходит
Диана Рычкова
Деформация ног идет. Они же в замкнутом пространстве часто находятся. Я видела много ног таких балерин и почти все не в лучшем состоянии
Потому что это правда)))
Возможно, Вы полгода занимаетесь всего))))))
Кстати, это еще не самая худшая деформация стоп. Точнее ее почти нет здесь. Хотя все равно ясно, что это ножки балерины
I always wanted to be a ballerina,I had the passion, the body and strength, I was always ahead in ballet classes, I enjoyed making my pointe shoes and even though I had to sacrifice a lot during my childhood I insisted, but ballet is really expensive, by the end of 8th grade my parents couldn’t afford it and I had to leave, my teacher was sad bcz I had so much potential 😣😣
I really really really want to try ballet but I think I'm too old to start because I'm already 15 and its hard to find decent ballet lessons on our region because ballet is pretty rare or hard to find here.
She so full of discipline
한국인 손!!!!!!!!!
저유!!
저요 ㅎㅎ
Reminds me of my sister. She is a ballerina too.
I always thought that anything that was that beautiful, was a tough job. And it is.
While I understand the willingness to make sacrifices for the art, I have always hoped that someone somewhere would come up with an innovation that would be a saving grace to young girls feet when they are getting ready to put on their first pair of pointe shoes.
改めて、親指を軸に回ったり、飛んだりしてもバランスを崩さないことの難しさが分かった。
それを何分も何十分も、美しく優雅に飛んでいるバレエの人はすごいなって思う。
Art.
Amazing
Cool!!
There is always a cost to things that are really worth doing. The joy of dancing, hard as it can be on the body, well, when you're dancing you don't feel the pain yet you do it again and will for as long as you can. Till you're old or can't..
I miss dancing 😌
Im a dancer and its so relateble and im an Australian
May i ask if anyone can start ballet? I mean does age count? Btw i loved your video :D
Respect
Tia amo tu vídeo
I’ll never forget my first moment ‘en pointe. 💍
cest vrai en ce moment la j ai plus des pieds 🤣🥲 a cause de mon dernier cours des pointes mercredi dernier mais le mercredi prochain je retournerais je suis sure parce que j adore faire des POINTES 😍😍
