    To see this man just say “it would not be good for her spine, stop right now” that alone made me cry, he’s not thinking about the sport, he’s thinking of his daughter, when se decided ballet he went and auditioned with her. I can’t omg

      I was very lucky, my dad was always there for whatever we were doing in our lives (and still is). He didn't always understand but he was always there.

      I love how he realized he needed to protect his daughter’s health and gave up on his dream of having a professional gymnast daughter. No more tumbling. He’s willing to learn ballet to help his little girl.

    Oh my gosh, I have chills and goosebumps!!! We love a supportive father that doesn’t show toxic masculinity, but instead is like “my daughter wants me to dance with her? Well, I better train hard so I can make sure I show off her talents” 🥰😍💜

      Toxic Masculinity doesn't exist and you all need to get over it... to prove this point, we all know that when women demonstrate classically masculine traits to an excessive degree nobody will ever try and claim that it's toxic.

    I always wondered why my shoes never fit like anybody else, but I realized me and this girl literally have the same feet. thank you so much for making this video. it helps me so much in knowing what shoes should fit like.

    • @ryrify
      @ryrify 3 года назад +9

      I have the same feet and ended up in the same shoe! Yay because I tried on about 30 shoes and I was despairing that I would be horrible in pointe. I got a longer vamp and a more narrow width and it felt amazing! Now I need to get my Dad on board ..

    • @sophiasupinski1770
      @sophiasupinski1770 3 года назад +8

      @@ryrify my feet compress and I have child sized feet despite being an adult so I was always in the wrong shoe and always fitted too big, I find Russian made shoes are really catered for people with feet like us.

    • @rebeccapacifico5689
      @rebeccapacifico5689 3 года назад +4

      Same here. Adult in a size 2. My problem is I have these same feet but with very short toes, so the higher vamp feels like it’s cutting into my foot. Nikolay/Grishko Maya work, especially if I add vamp elastic.

      Thanks Josephine!! I love watching all your videos. Especially the fittings of young ballerinas getting fitted for their very first pair of Pointe Shoes. You can see the excitement on their faces of having "graduated" to the Pointe Shoe. My father supported me in my horse riding endeavors and the one brother after me in his hockey endeavors. Being in the Military, he couldn't always be there to support us with his presence, but we knew he tried his hardest for us to realize our dreams. He served for 22 years with the Canadian Armed Forces, and is now retired. He is 81 years young, my mother is 79 years young. I am a recently Retired Paramedic, who now lives with them, only as a precautionary measure and everything is fine, but all my certification is current until 2025. They will be celebrating their 58th Wedding Anniversary in February of 2022. Many Blessings to you and your mother. I wish you much Joy, Health and Love. From Ontario, Canada, Jenn. 💖💖🇨🇦

    My dad also went to every pointe shoe fitting and I had octopus feet so we would sit for hours. New shoe every time until finally found the shoe. Took 7 appointments and he would drive 30 minutes out of time. My dad was the only person I could tell “i dont feel good I’m on my cycle” and he’d go to the store and get EVERYTHING I needed like overboard. He’s sit through all of my ballet classes and gossip with the moms and did the same when I was a swimmer. He remind me of this young ladie’s dad. My husband is the same way with me, and with our daughter to the point that if I wanna try a new shoe, he can tell what parts are making up uncomfortable or don’t fit right

    I just want to point out how important it is to stay in shape after retiring . I gained a lot of weight and have massive ped issues. Now several surgeries on metatarsal heads and tendon entry points.. the excess weight really hurt my already hard working feet later on in life. My arches were extreme. Don't walk barefoot!! Lovely video!! She is adorable and so talented already! Go Sofia!!

  • @HH_Btw
    @HH_Btw 3 года назад +12

    I did ballet for about 7-8 years (still not on point as I started really really young) but I recently quit during lockdown. I got a lot of anxiety over it as I was so unsure and indecisive, but even though I quit I still walk around the house on my tiptoes. I wanted to focus on my true passion of music and after finding out that I was going to have to be able to do the splits I decided it wasn’t for me. I still think ballet is a beautiful thing to take up, but it wasn’t something I wanted to take seriously. But I just want everyone to know that you don’t need to be afraid to quit like I was. Do what makes you happy, and just because you don’t do it anymore, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy watching/listening/having a good go at it just for fun.
    Stay safe, and god bless you all.

    It's so nice to see a father being so supportive. My father and I have not had contact since I was 13 years old. Once he found out my romantic preference toward other men he told me he wouldn't have 'one of my kind' (he used the f word) under his roof.

    Relatable!!!! I grew up in dance where ballet became my ultimate favorite style. And, I was the one at the studio with the "good" feet. I have since made a wreath out of my old Pointe shoes except for my first pair and most recent pair. I also do artistic roller dance skating. After high school, since I was no longer enrolled in dance, I started focusing on my skating technique even more. Now, that I'm eligible to skate the adult events, I skate with my dad, and not only for open events. Nationals is next month in Cedar Rapids, IA. Anyway, I could talk all day about skating.

But I don't know what to do, like what point shoes do I try (right now I have Russian points and I don't like them, I'm thinking of trying gaynor mindens) but other than that what am I supposed to do?

    I have quite flexible feet, and I have been on pointe since March. I have trouble rolling up onto pointe. The shoe hits a bit above my toes and makes it hard to move from elevé to relevé. I don’t have super weak feet, but I’m trying to get stronger. I am currently in Suffolk Sonnet size 5 XXXN with a full shank. I’m not sure if the difficulty to roll up onto the box is from the weakness of my feet or an incorrect shoe.
