How I Sew My Pointe Shoes

Hey guys! I hope that you were able to pick up some good tips from this video! Once again, all pointe shoes are different and everyone's feet are different so just keep adjusting the placement of your ribbons and elastic until you find what works the best for you! Thanks for watching :)

Thankyou so much for this video! I got my first pair of pointe shoes last Tuesday, and I used this technique to sew them :DI've watched possibly almost all pointe shoe videos, and this HAS to be the best one!Your instructions were so straight-forward and clear, unlike the others. Once again, Thanks a bunch!I'll be starting my pointe class this Saturday :D

I've never seen anyone use floss before! That's actually a great idea, I might do that next time!(:

Aw thank you so much for watching and supporting our channel for so long!! We have always trained in the Voganova style, but we have done Balanchine and the ABT curriculum over the summers. What about you?

I just got my point shoes and they recommended I sew elastic on the heel like yours because I have disappearing heels in releve' so I was excited when you had yours sewn the same way. :-)

Hahaha yeah in retrospect I feel like it would have been better to capitalize the first letters of the words in our username to differentiate them! Besides, I definitely prefer to talk about ballet than to stalk it :P haha

Great video! It is very helpful! Thanks for the good info. :)
Could you do a video showing all the pointe shoes you've ever owned? That is, if you kept them...
