- 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.

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
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!
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 RUclips for?
I gave it up when I was nine and I regret it
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
Who else loves the feeling when you take off your pointe shoes after a long day? It feels sooooo good
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 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
3 years later and i still come back to watch this video, thank you to the artists
I’m a ballerina and you do get used to the pain and it’s totally worth it
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
I was so obsessed with the previous en pointe video. I'm obsessed again
😘😘🌹🌹🌹👏👏👏😘😘😘Мое восхищение, вам балерины!!!
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😊
She has a great career ahead of her!!!
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’m so happy y’all did it again yeeet
Aw she is so beautiful!!!
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...
何の動画かわからないけどすごく美しい、
Aaaaaah ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ amo muitoooooo 🇧🇷
I do ballet and it’s so fun, I love it
My flat feet can’t handle that
Can’t even keep my mind own balance standing normally lol
I’m starting pre-pointe soon.
I was randomly curious but damn, I have newfound respect for Ballerinas.
I love ballet but I am contortionist and Serbian ballet (I live in Serbia) is not good but ballet is the best part of art that elegant, strong feets best thing ever I am veryyy talented for ballet when I was 3 grade i wanted to be professional ballerina but now (I am 6 grade) I am contortionist and do crazy stuff
Thnx for sharing!
Oh my its beautiful!
I like ballet!! It very good
Кто из России?)
I feel a sharp pain through my feet by watching this 💀
I miss dancing 😌
I have a pointe! I really like it because I’m short, but, when I stand on my tip toes on the pointe I feel tall!
Stella Animations Uhh...
wow beautiful video! Thanks
Awww a new one ❤❤❤
May i ask if anyone can start ballet? I mean does age count? Btw i loved your video :D
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
Is Love ballet !!!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘
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 😍😍
Ballet is so beautiful, but it also looks so painful!
Amazing
Respect
So will they not feel any pain if there toe stubbed on something... What about there toe nails
just an INFIRED person sometimes toe nails do tend to fall off your feet are blistered bleeding you don’t feel it much you get used to it you wouldn’t think you do but you really do just become immune to it there’s good pain and bad pain and you can always tell the difference
Toe nails can fall off if they’re not cared for or too long. I keep my clipped and short and I have yet to have a toe nail fall off :)
I think ballerina are one of the most athletic people
I’ll never forget my first moment ‘en pointe. 💍
I love it
Is it feels hurt?
It hurts a lot sometimes. But other times it doesn't really hurt that much.
When I started ballet with 5 I thought that I would already get the typical ballerina dress and point shoes and guess what I didn't got any of these
I do ballet but I have never been on pointe... I am really scared tbh
Why dont they just make the shoes better if theyre gonna break them?🙊
Soy bailarina de yas y ballete☺🎀
すごく綺麗で見とれちゃった
This particular part of ballet always look like kung fu for me. I mean they literally standing on one finger.
MAD PROPS FOR THESE DANCERS
Dont they get leg cramps from time to time ?
Baby - Potato I get cramps in my feet and knees if I don’t drink enough water. You also don’t cramp when you’re warmed up enough and stretched
I'm 12 years old and I still wanna be a ballerina 😊
Meus pés não são assim....e eu não quebrei minha sapatilha nem cortei 😩😕😕💁💁💁💁💁
i'm going on point next year :D
Vecumdienas!!
so why they do?
❤~❤WOW❤~❤
❤~❤
Ballet is such an unhealthy sport seriously
you're right, my father is a physiotherapist and he told me that a lot of ballet dancers he treated were 25 years old with the body of a 40 years old. They have really messed up back and feet and their joints are destroyed. But I feel like it's kind of worth it, ballet is so beautiful !
Louise GaryAVBl sad...
Barakudaa I think that it's like any other sport.If you do it as a hobby 2-3 times a week it's really good for your body and keeps it strong and healthy but if you do it professionally your body starts having some problems but it's so worth it.I love ballet with all my heart and I'm trying to get good enough so that I can audition to my country's best ballet school.I really want to be a professional ballerina!
Inês Magalhães alright but your feet should be crushed. I can't believe that it's healthy to put so much weight on your toes!
Ur not a ballerina to say that and if ur strong u won't feel the pain like me!
what happen when your middle foot finger is longer than the others?
Como que ela consegue subir sem a sapatilha?
0:22 notice her foot
Redness is to be seen but still she's enough strong to stand on toes
I have flexible flat feet but I'm still bend my arch that much ;(
Wow
The thumps nail gives me foot cramps
My feet hurts from watching this.
Okay but actually how do they walk like that
A sensação de superar limite é indescrevível para quem chega la..
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.
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
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!!!
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!
If a ballerina injures herself foot only once but chooses to keep dancing, she can become crippled.
I am getting my pointe shoes on Monday 🎉🎊
Man you are talented
I respect all ballerina dancers the are strong ❤
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?
Wow! This definitely requires so much strength and stability
綺麗だね
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
한국인 손!!!!!!!!!
저유!!
저요 ㅎㅎ
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 💞
Please do more of these!!! They're so therapeutic to watch!!!! I screamed so loud when this showed up in my subscription box
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.
I got my fist pair of pointe shoes today and I’m in love. I so ready for the hard work and pain❤️
omg she's the girl from Things Ballet Dancers Will Never Say (Or Do)
ひゃー美しいね
When I was a little girl, I wanted to be a ballerina, so badly. I never got my chance.
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.
RUclips, why is this recommended on my feed a year after?
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!♥️
Respect for all those ballerinas who have to sacrifice their feet 💖💖
Бедные ноги!
Ты очень хороша!
😍👏👏😍
Just looking at this made my feet ache...
Não entendi o que ela falou
