pointe shoe fitter reacts to BALLET TIKTOK 32

[@Chlo-ee]

Jazzercise is 50% hip thrust and 50% pure laughter. If that ain’t a workout, I don’t know what is

[@Amaranthyne]

…is this a test? This comment feels like bait…is it bait? Sooo many jokes and all sooo bad!

[@decodolly1535]

Very happy to say that I've many a time been involved in activity which is 50% hip thrust and 50% laughter. But it never once crossed my mind to call it jazzercise.....

Jazzercise🤣 that’s hilarious! Okay but when she said “come on find your pelvis, I know you have on, and it’s okay to move it for heavens sake”, that healed some ballet trauma in me😂

I was a tiny kiddo in the early 80s, taking dance/ tap/ ballet classes and loving everything about anything 'dance'. My mom would do jazzercize and step aerobics in the living room and I vividly remember joining in and having a blast! My tiny heart loved all of it! Lol

Omgosh! The little girl getting her first dance shoes 🩰🥺😍 I'm gone! I wish my daughter had wanted to dance at that age. So cute 😍

[@beautyforumbyangela]

Hello 👋🏽, you are so right. I remember when I was 5 in my ballet class & our teacher, Ms. Palace would dance for us at the end of class. It was so magical 🩰. I so admired her. She left & went on to perform professionally. I will never forget her. She taught us poise, grace & to have fun while we learned ballet 🩰. I so enjoy watching your reactions to the little ones. Ms. Palace would light up when the class did well. You remind me of her, Ms. Josephine. Thank you 😊. Cheers 😉🌷

The Twilight car crash scene refers to when a kids van slides on ice in the parking lot and Edward rushes over to Bella and blocks it from crushing her w his vampire strength. (He also gaslights her saying he was no where near her and she’s just imagining it…) *WHERE MY RATS AT!?*

🥹 the little girl buying her tap shoes. ❤ jazz exercise video . As someone who grew up in the 80s . I remember her very well.

Judi Sheppard Missett is a treasure! Those old jazzercise videos are a ride.

[@masterwarden2827]

Ya know, the thing with Marienela, is that you can tell she ADORES what she does. She was born to be a dancer, and she truly loves her job. That passion is very clear when she dances. I love her, she's a gift to the ballet world.

[@kballet2001]

They 150% still have Jazzercise classes Josephine! You should try one some day it’s different now but lots of overly excited shouting and the teachers are like “whoooop whoo000p!!!” And of course the class all says the same thing it’s madness. My mom was an instructor and met Judy and her daughter many times. My mom was INSANE she had like 60 people in her class and she’s so shy normally it’s just like..Jazzercise ✨ MAGIC ✨ she was suddenly this loud outgoing unashamed of whooping and hollering it up 🤣

Honey, Jazzercise started in the 80s and I did it as a kiddo in the 90s. Jazzercise is going nowhere.

I have photos of when I took my daughter shopping for her first ballet slippers and leotard, etc. She was 3 y/o and a bundle of excitement and cuteness. She is almost 11 now, still in ballet and starting pointe training. Also, I had the chance to see Marianela Nuñez perform Kitri along with Gustavo Carvalho in Don Quixote at the Teatro Nacional in Panama City, Panama. It was a truly amazing experience.

Ballet in heels is actually really good for practicing a really high relevé! You can't lower your heels at all, because they'll touch the ground right away!

[@hillyy05]

i actually got a question to ask , i started ballet at the age 2 and im now 14 but still not en pointe yet . but my friend who started at the age 4 and is now in grade 5 ( for ballet ) can go en pointe already . why ? also im in grade 7 now

[@OneDoodlingBug]

I know nothing about ballet but I wonder if the heels help the foot muscles to prepare for pointe shoes? Again, I don’t know anything about ballet.

[@ivyarianrhod]

Well, considering you can't actually point your toes in heels, or stretch your calves, I really doubt it!

[@Fish_FL.]

@@ivyarianrhod I was thinking along the lines of umm, demi pointe shoes? Like the foot is arched but the toes remain on the floor…?, that’s what it looks like to me. Again, I don’t know so next time, I’ll remain quiet.

[@ivyarianrhod]

No need to remain quiet! Questions are valid. Demi-pointe shoes estill give you the ability to role through the foot. Not all steps are done on the toes. @@Fish_FL.

[@ivyarianrhod]

I replied to this earlier... where did it go??? No need to remain quiet! Questions are valid, it's how we learn. Demi-pointe shoes still allow a roll-through of the foot, We don't dance on our toes, or the ball of the foot, all the time. @@Fish_FL.

[@KateandBree]

@@ivyarianrhod This is a heels class which requires *dance heels* so yes, you can point your toes in them and stretch your calves. They are designed completely differently from regular heels. Wear a pair a Burju heels and tell me you can't dance in them. They are literally worn by Dancing with the Stars dancers and thousands of other ballroom dancers. I own a pair and they are totally different to regular heels. I would not be surprised if the whole class were wearing Burju shoes (I spot the Adira in True Nude Shade either 2 or 3 I think. Aidra in Black is worn by the teacher.) Dance heels are a different beast.
