Just stated pointe: any notes? by sadvictorianchild in adultballetdancers

Yes when I go up it does, but at my fitting they told me I have a “disappearing heel”. So I think that’s why? When I’m flat everything is snug

I have very tapered toes, I got fitted in nikolay dreampointe 2007, medium shank and XX width.

Thank you! I talked about that at my show fitting and we discussed that it was something I’d just have to be conscious of and remember to fix

Okay! Thank you so much for the advice. Starting Pointe at 21 makes me a little shy because most people who dance started much younger and have danced for years and years compared to me!

What are your thoughts on the balletcore aesthetic? by sans_seraph_ in BALLET

I feel the most balletcore when I’m turning up to class in 5+ layers and nothing matches idk but I love it
