pointe shoe fitter reacts to ballet tik toks 19

[@jenniferharris1280]

turning on concrete? tough. asphalt? probably tougher. but on the painted arrow? slick! he chose to position himself there for the turn on purpose! (and it WAS lovely!)

True but he is still in regular shoes 😅

Agreed!! It would be such an incredible experience to learn from her. Maybe someday she’ll grant our wish 😊

From the 1920s to around the 1970s, by which point the hazards of frequent x-rays to both the x-rayee and people around the machine had become well known, a device called a "shoe-fitting fluoroscope" was actually used at many shoe stores to see how feet, particularly children's toes, fit into shoes. So decades ago you could have actually done it! Just not safely.

[@kdandsheela]

very cool!

It’s still not great obviously because pregnant woman are told to avoid xrays but then told to have a mammogram every year..it’s bad for the baby but has not negative effect on the person? I think prevention is smart but I don’t know if I trust some of the strange things we are told to do..sometimes you just have to do what feels right for you..I’m not suggesting avoiding the doctor but I couldn’t even have an X-ray when I lost a filling pregnant..

For that last video, it's actually pretty easy to turn on concrete. I was on my high school dance that still did our band's half time shows and we would practice on asphalt daily. Once your sneakers get worn in enough, it's as easy as turning on a dance floor.

He also was smart enough to turn on the painted-on sign, those surfaces are rather slippery… especially in rain.

Some of my online students live in Korea and various appliances regularly go off during our classes - rice cooker for this student, dishwasher for that one, doorbell when dad gets home for a third. I can’t believe I never thought to turn them into movement breaks!!! (I could at least choreo the Zojirushi rice cooker from memory lol)

The appliance jingle thing also applies to professional laser machines (for hair removal and "removal" of other unwanted things, like a tattoo you regret) in laser removal offices when the laser turns on to warm up.
