I wonder if the pointe shoes are made for photoshoots, etc, where people can’t be bothered to hire a proper dancer - like, they’re easy to balance on, look passable en pointe but atrocious when flat, etc etc.

I usually hate product review vids mostly because they're sponsored, but since it's you I figured I'd give it a go!! And again since it's you, this has been absolutely hysterical!!! I don't think I've ever seen an actually honest review ever!! Thank you so much for this and I hope you'll review more haha. Oh and while at it, can you possibly look into male ballet clothing?! Like there's nothing there and it drives me to insanity. I think you would make not only me but a million guys out there soo happy if you find some male friends dancers and talk about where they shop, if at all. I feel like most guys just make their training clothes on custom. I'm actually serious, there's a massive industry gap here that no one seems to notice it and like, men are human too, we also want to look good in the workshops, professionals or not 🤣😬 thanks again, you're changing ballet teaching forever and I absolutely adore you and your optimistic self!!

Yes! Have been waiting for you to try this!!

Bloch has some flat shoes with mesh in the arch zone, their called pro-arch. I've wore them for almost 5 years, the other day I bought the performa ones to try them. Let's see how they work.

The black half sleeve leotard looks so pretty

Hey Claudia, I really love your videos and your ideas! 😍😍 I'm always laughing

The slips with leather on toes could be perfect when doing a workshop/classes where ballet studio have wooden floors. Dusty wood floors aren't sticky and no need to worry about splinters with leather covered toes.

I'm not a dancer but you look amazing trying on these shoes anyway. I've been watching ballet dancers like magicians since I was a kid. You are so so so much beautiful!

I was so nervous about those pointe shoe(the pink ones especially)but they actually looked beautiful on you! By the way I love your channel!

Sending love and prayers to you and Australia at this time with the devastating fires! 🙏❤️

I've always been curious about what these product's quality actually are! Thank you Claudia!

Hi Claudia, I super love your videos. I wanted to learn ballet until the pointe work but sadly, we didn't have the money so I only studied ballet for 2 years. But your videos make me happy though, hearing you talk about anything ballet related. Im a big fan. And you have a great sense of humor, you're just fun to watch and I admire your dancing and personality. 😊 You must be great at coaching aspiring dancers. If I could learn ballet in another life, I'd want to learn from you.

I really enjoyed this vid. I buy a lot of cheap dance wear on Amazon for my 8 year old. She dances 4-5 days a week and grows out of everything so fast, after the cost of tuition, competitions, conventions, and costumes I just have to go cheap on daily class wear. Her feet are getting wide like mine though so we do have to buy shoes at a store. We also live in a rural area and the closest dancewear store is over an hour away. It's really hard to find time to make the trip working 50 hours a week and sitting in a studio 10-15 hours a week. I just can't beat Amazon's 2 day home delivery. I have been very lucky with real cheap leos so far, only got a bizarre size/cut once. I run them all in the washer and dryer too!

I was just looking at amazon pointe shoes and wondering if they would actually work. Great video!

Omg, I wish I didn't have to stop dancing and I wouldn't have, if I had such an amazing teacher as you ❤️❤️❤️ my old one used to fat shame us in front of everyone, so many girls actually started to starve themselves 😢 you seem so nice😍😍 lots of love from Austria ❤️❤️❤️

That first pointe shoe actually looked impressive!

Im joining ballet soon! I’m going to be very happy and excited!

The canvas ones at 10:46 are actually widely used in Romania in both schools and private clubs, both during classes and on stage. They are mainly sold in three colors - white, black, and red, light pink being the fourth color, only it's not found everywhere. They are made in China and aren't expensive - 15 RON/pair, which roughly means 3.5 USD.

In a few months, I'm going to start dancing on pointe and no shops are open. I just started watching this because and now I'm obsessed with your channel!

My personal favorites for flatt shoes are Stelle brand. Especially leather soled. I got them off Amazon. They're really affordable ($10), and I absolutely love them. Amazon leotards aren't too bad either. I can't tell you what I think of pointe shoes though. I don't have them yet. As in, I can't use them yet.

The s.lemon brand flats my mom and I bought on a whim. My niece had just started pre ballet/ballet 1 age 5. The capezio shoes that were originally bought for her were too too small. I tried to do the freezer stretch with sticks I did to save money (ya, dance aint cheap) haha. Sadly did not work. My mom found the canvas "practice" shoes on Amazon. For a kid with sensitive skin they were amazing! Was hard to get her to take them off. Are they super pretty on the bottom? No. Did they work for and encourage dance in a comfortable way for starters!? Oh YA! So for that I recommend. Age ten and up nope, better off to get a traditional class flat sure.

The purple shoes hurt my eyes Also hey Claudia! Ur videos have helped me so much getting through my first pair of pointe. Thank you!

I think brought them exact purple ballet shoes but in red for my acting where we did fame on stage. They were really good!

I took ballet for several years but could not start until I was 24 years old since there was not school where I grew up. I did dance on pointe after grueling exercises to stretch my feet.
