Pointe Shoe Fitting to Get Over Your Box 

I’m not a dancer and certainly never buying pointe shoes but I love watching experts talk about the thing they’re passionate about

Nice to understand the solution to a problem I had 40 years ago.

I love your channel. It would be nice to show a side by side photo of before and after once you've corrected the issue.

I’m not on pointe, but I learn so much about foot structure with each video. I love how you fit so many different dancers and are so positive. If I ever do get to be on pointe, I will wait and get fitted by you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Last night my teacher told my I was getting stronger and she can see it!!! And I’m over my boxes!!!! ❤️ I love you Josephine!! ❤️🥰❤️😁😀

You are amazing in your knowledge of feet and shoes. Thanks for sharing as it's fascinating watching and hearing you diagnose for a more perfect fit. If only every dancer had access to your personal service.

Ah i got my pointe letter and now i have my fitting on Friday, and i have watched like all your videos and cant believe i will be getting a pointe fitting

Yay ! I actually watched the intro from your live stream ! I was the one to ask what was in the goody bags 😂

I am getting pointe shoes next Christmas and I am sooo excited

Wow!! These videos are amazing!! To see the before and after 😍😍

I love this channel

Wow what a difference!

This is a great video!

Hi I'm getting my first pair of pointe shoes this Saturday and I'm really excited but I'm not getting them at your shop though

i’ve been fitted what seems like a million times when i can’t get over and the vamps are too high and my toes are so short

I love watching you do fittings. I am amazed at the depth of your knowledge. We’re you a dancer before?.

I love these vids! :D

So nice nice to see a full size dancer. ❤

I always wanted to know who did the point shoe fit before the point shop

I started to dance 3 years ago. I got my first pair of pointe shoes in my second year. I bought my first pair from a pointe shoe fitter. Then I needed a new pair. We did not have the money for the pointe shoes this time. So, I got them from someone else. They were entirely new. These pointe shoes feel pretty good, but I can't get all the way over en pointe!!!! I work on strengthening my feet but I just can't get over! please tell me what I can do. Thank you in advance!

Love how I had this problem with my shoes and I had great ankles. I never really successfully could get into pointe with one leg off the ground…. I feel like my vamp is too long. 😒

what shoes did the second dancer try ?

What could the problem be if the box crushes the top of your big toe nail when trying to get up on pointe on one foot?

Is it normal for the box to impossible to to get over unless your foot is parallel. I can’t get over the box in first because my foot can’t bend more than like 190 degrees and I think the fitter was trying to get me out of the store because she sent me out with the first pair that fit

I feel the same way - not a dancer but still enjoy your vlogs. Question - what does sickling mean?

Thanks for the Video. Although I've found my pairs now , it's always interesting to watch Pointe shies fitting. It's weird that now I can even dance in all the old shoes that didn't work for me before. The only thing that bothers me is that it used to be easier for me to dance on hard shank to get on box but now it feels awkward and sitff ...so now I prefer almost dead pair even its for Gisèle variation ... Heard most professionals use hard shank and soft shank is for beginners ...does it mean I'm weaker? But now I can do almost anything I can with ballet flats. Ugh really confused 🙄

could you come to RI?

i’m having a similar situation to the first girl! I’m currently in a really soft russian, and i can’t tell if it’s my foot strength, hyperbextension, etc that’s pulling me or if it’s the shoe? what do u suggest? thanks josephine

Hi, my daughter was fitted for pointe shoes couple weeks ago. We came home with one shoe Nikolay 5XXX S and one Grishko 5XXX M . I am wondering if we got the like that by mistake or on purpose. And what is the difference if there is one.

You are my favourite

Josephine❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😄

What shoes did they start and end up in???

I wish I could buy pointe shoes...

I feel the second girl was knuckling really badly in the new shoes. The line was not aesthetically pleasing at all.
