pointe shoe fitter reacts to ALEX HALL 

I feel a pointe shoe fitting challenge coming up. "Can Josephine get this girl back to ballet?" Stay tuned! 😆

Guys, I'd like to say something whether you see this or not. Alex speaks in her videos how she still does ballet at home as much as she can, and she is in art school. She has received many comments as to why she quit and in a few of her videos she explains that she does not feel ready to share the reason. We should respect her reasons and wait until she requests a fitting with Josephine. Thank you.💕 Edit** She may also have a traumatic experience regarding it too. (Also thank you for reading and understanding💕)

As someone with hyper mobility I have to admit it makes me wince when her knees hyper extend. No one told me that and all the "party tricks" were causing unnecessary damage.

Josephine❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😄

Good one.

I don't know if you know Claudia Dean's channel - she used to dance with the Royal Ballet. I'd love to see a reaction video to this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-19qTBSrVHmg.html - or any of her other videos that you want

Alex is phenomenal. I don’t know why she stopped, but I would have liked to have seen her in a company. She is so naturally gifted. I wish she would start back seriously.

Oh my god finally Alex is getting the attention she deserves 😭 she's the absolute sweetest and her videos amazing. Hope she doesn't forget me now hahaha

Okay wowowWOW this was so nice and sweet! Please react to me anytime!! ❤️❤️❤️ (I also agree my shoes are kind of big 😂)

We need you to give Alex a point shoe fitting. This needs to happen!!!

Her: doesn’t dance for 1 yr and is literally pErFeCt Me: *doesn’t dance for 1 week* “I can't touch my toes-“

Not done ballet for a year??? I officially want to cry, I didn't look like that even at my peak 🤦🏻‍♀️

When you mentioned that the first time you used the roller you experienced some level of pain, well, that is 100% normal. To share, I had run three marathons and regularly had massages, but my IT bands would really tighten up... so after about 16 miles, my upper legs felt like they had been hit by a sledge hammer, which is not the best feeling when you have 10 miles left to run! Just a few days before my 4th marathon, my massage therapist had me try the roller. That was excruciating, but after two days, that roller didn't hurt nearly as much, and it flattened out my IT bands. That was the first marathon that I ran very well the last 10 miles, for which my definition of "very well" means that I didn't look like I suffered from a neurological disorder! If you are dancing or involved with any kind of exercise, try the roller for 10-30 seconds on your quads and the sides of your thighs, twice per day. Likely within 72 hours things will feel much, much better. BTW, I did perform with the ABT and Joffrey Ballet, but.....thank goodness I was playing the violin! Oh Lord, if I were dancing....somebody, most likely me, would be injured! Even though I have no dancing background, I enjoy your videos because you are just such a nice and fun lady, with all kinds of great positive energy. I wish you the very best with all that you do.

My daughter and I watch your videos every morning before she goes to school. She’s 8 and is in ballet and just loves watching anything ballet related. She expressed wanting to go to your shop to be fitted for point shoes when she’s ready, so I made the whole argument that it’s a long way off and it’s something very special to be able to do but that maybe we could…knowing full well we’ll take her and surprise her when the time is right😂☺️

Josephine, maybe (maybe?) Alex should have a pointe shoe fitting?

I LOOOVE Alex Hall! I actually got into her after craving more ballet video after finding the pointe shop :D

Ballet is the only time you can say someone has nice feet without it being weird 😭

I followed her for a while but she never revealed why she gave it up. 🤷‍♀️ maybe she wanted a less pressure lifestyle? Less demanding? Less cut throat? Anybody know? She was definitely built for it. But all that glitters is not always gold.😶. Just thinking even though it's none of my bloody business. 😵‍💫

I broke my leg 17 years ago in a very misguided dance rehearsal rehearsal at uni, studying performing arts, on point on my left leg. I can still turn out and do basic things but it actually didn’t end with the broken leg- I got nerves involved and have had debilitating chronic pain ever since. There’s a very very good reason why Josephine reacts the way she does on videos out of pure fear at peoples feet.

this girl is so funny and amazing omg! her turnout 😵

Omg! I would kill for a video with you and Alex! 2 of my favorite youtubers in one video... sign me up!

Ballet shape is a whole other level. I don't miss the bun, either. She's a beautiful dancer. Absolutely amazing. She must have gone through a lot of tie shoes. She over-arches. She's humble, and funny. She's crazy good. Her arabesque goes straight behind her. Great muscle memory. Unique. She's got the best feet. Point shoes fo such. They do hurt.

Omg Alex Hall and I are kinda similar! I was a comp dancer to and then switched to ballet.

I'd love to see you react to another of Alex's videos, "Trying on all my old pointe shoes". She's so hilarious, and a phenomenal dancer! Also, I *really* want to see you fit her!!

I love your channel so much! I've learned SOOOOO much about ballet shoes. Back in the day when I was taking dance (175 years ago lol), they put us (guys) in point shoes so we could get a sense of our partner's challenges (balance and the like). It was helpful, but those shoes were INCREDIBLY painful. It's nice to know that there are so many more shoe models/fits and great shoe fitters like yourself.

There’s compilations of the ALDC from Dance Moms doing “ballet” numbers and I would love for Josephine to react to them please!

Please react to more of Alex Hall's videos, especially the one where she tries on all her old shoes!!

I ❤ all of Josephine's positive vibes and energy!! I know nothing about ballet, but she makes it sooo interesting!!

I KNEW THIS EPISODE WOULD COME YESSSSSSSSSS THANK YOU JOSEPHINE

React to tv show BUNHEADS

When someone finds the bare minimum HILARIOUS. My god chill. Still love your vids though

Ok but my two favorite ballet channels together? 😍 we need them to collab on something

Since you enjoy watching her at the barre, try the video called "Ex-Pro Ballerina Teaches YOU A Ballet Class"

in level one of ballet i had a teacher with feet that could bend to the ground and i thought everyone was like that xDD

2 nights ago i had a dream of going into ballet class and doing a pirouette but what were supposed to do was a tondu- 4:08 (I don’t go to ballet class i use yt vid tutorials lmao-)

Imagine how flawless she actually is after not taking a year off I can't even imagine what that would look like

Offer this girl a free fitting!! Just for being hysterical!!

Josephine, you aren’t alone, I bought the roller too… all I felt was ouch, ouch, ouch!

3.45 there’s not lazy ballerina that gets this good. Me. There no lazy ballerina in general

Have we ever seen Josephine sitting on a chair instead of the floor? Just a quick query

3:30 Im hypermobile according to my pediatrician! :D

I might get back in to ballet or acrobatics again and I have not been there for like um 😐for 2 years now

I am so with Josephine on the roller thing. It always feels like I'm rolling on needles

Question: is it possible to get into ballet for the first time at 16? I took ballet when I was really young but I stopped doing it because I thought it was boring. I didn’t realize at that age how beautiful it is but I feel like I missed my opportunity

I absolutely love watching all your reaction videos Josephine!! I wish I could find my pointe shoe soulmate but I haven’t found that shoe which really works for me yet. Unfortunately I’ve tried all the fitters in my city and just can’t seem to find someone who fits for feet shape rather than shoe size. ☹️

Hello there!! Alex was actually in the National Ballet of Canada!!! She quit over personal reasons that she's not ready to talk about yet. She definitely is one of my favorite channels ❤

I miss Alex Hall’s videos so much! I hope she makes a return to YT soon 🥺

It's like when I took a class by Li Cunxin [Mao's Last Dancer] at Queensland Ballet's community classes. He did a quad pirouette for us all and said it was terrible but it was hands down the most technically perfect thing I've ever seen.

She is so funny! She is fantastickqchkck! Oh what an envie!🤣 grazie, Josephine!🤗🌸

2:25 my feet do that should I start ballet?

The bruised feeling is normal when you start using a roller.

She's magnificent.

We need you to react to Rhythmic Gymnastics 😍🤩🥺

Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the struggles and madness in this world today, God is full of justice, mercy and love. Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans . The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom. If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. He will help us through the struggle, the stress, and anything we experience in the world. It's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him through His power (not ourselves, we need Him to help us as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction). He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if you had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place. He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it. He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way. Christ says in John 16:33: I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.] - (AMPLIFIED version) NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER. Regardless of what you've done or what you're going through you CAN make it through Jesus. Xx

oooooooooh she's an army

I love her!! My fav

We need to get her into your shop for a proper fitting.

I don't know why buy you give me mom or cool aunt vibes 💀

I love Alex' channel, the videos are so funny and i love when she talks about ballet :-) Wish I had feet like hers... Mine are ugly but on the flipside pointe doesn't hurt much for me.

Why did she stop

U need to go canada! She is canadian!!

The girl: screams in pain Josephine: LoOK hoW PreTtY HeR FeET ArE

💖👑👑💖🎀🎀🎀🎀🎀🎀🎀🎀🎀

Hey Josephine, Quick recommendation... Have a look at getting you audio balances better. Your Audio is way higher than the video you are editing into yours. Particularly if your audience is wearing headphones, we turn up the sound to hear the featured video properly, then you blow our ears out by having your audio set much higher. Definitely a technical feature you need to correct.

I saw the original video and thought she was lying/click bait. Her feet are gorgeous and thanks for confirming her shoes are done done done. One Love

I think the I'll fitted shoes are part of the sarcasm 🤣🤩

Well done.

Wow second!

OMG I AM ALREADY A SUBSCRIBER TO ALEX HALL I LOVER HER THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS

This was one of my favorite videos ever! So fun.

I stopped dancing 34 years ago. I still do bar work when I am tight. Most things they do now we didn’t do

She should react to the fitting in barbie and the pink shoes!

how do these videos just make my dayyyy

Have you done a reaction video on the show Strictly Ballet? from Miami

Josephine! Help her!! Even if she is not dancing professionally at the moment, those pointe shoes are so sad.

I'm scared because I am starting pointe NeXT year

Claudia Dean just did a video trying pointe shoes from wish - i think it would be both interesting and hilarious to see Josephine react lol

Yes, The Pointe Shop and Alex Hall collab please

Hyperextension! omg!

Yes! A 'Fit Her' collab! Ballet neeeeeds her.

I have a question: Can I try pointe shoe fitting even though I never danced before? Because I really wanna do.

Josephine PLEASE fit Alex!!!!

I watched this video some while back and I agree,she is hilarious! And that she doesn't look like somebody who's been away from dancing for a year,her legs,her feet,omg!!! I have to wonder why she stopped dancing.Pain? Being too much of a perfectionist? Obsessive perfectionism?(that's done a number on me where some of my talents lay).If she's happier not dancing,I understand completely,but it still seems a shame;her legs,feet,flexibility,are all so wonderful.Beautiful.

can flat footed people do ballet? i have barely any curve in my feet (i have man feet 😐) and wanted to know.

I always wanted to learn ballet since I was a kid but never got a chance ,i wanna learn ballet so badly

The pro: “I’ve been dancing since I was six. Me:I can compete. I WAS THREE WHEN I STARTED! TAKE THAT

did anyone else recognize the bts album in alex's room?

wow im 7th!! love you guys!!

OMG I've been dancing for like 12 years i wish i looked this good love/hate her but mostly love of course

Can you do ballet after 7 years

Please react to Post:Ballet! They have amazing videos of swan lake and more creative renditions of classic ballets.

I already know her, she is super super cool ❤️👌🏻True she is extremely beautiful, and in my opinion absolutely in perfect shape 👍🏻😃

Whoever you are, Jesus loves you

Toes feel like soft serve was it for me

(If you want to know about these rollers: There are different types with different textures and densities. Your choice depends on your weight und how many muscles you have.)

I am 41. I believe I have the feet for it as I am also hyper-mobile. Is it too late for me to learn ballet? I really just want to wear pointe shoes. Also, I have a total mom bod; so that should be taken into consideration. I am now looking for a ballet you-tuber who will take on this challenge that I am presenting.

Josephine: That's gorgeous Alex (caption): That was terrible The timing of that made me laugh lol

REACT TO MY FEET ARE KILLING ME (there are so many ballerinas!)

I'm thinking of going back to ballet...I can't decide whether to retry with ballet after a 3 years hiatus or to try pole dancing for the first time!

Oh my god. I know nothing about ballet, and I am in love with her feet too. They are perfect. Such a beautiful curve to them.
