Where can you buy mirrella pointe shoes?

I buy them at Dance Threadz. Pretty much every dance store has them:)


Is have Grishkos for your first pair of pointe shoes bad?

Everyone has differently shaped feet, so it just depends on the person. Grishkos often have harder shanks, which will make it more difficult for a beginning pointe student to get their arches all the way over the box. Grishkos are great pointe shoes, however, but they might not be right for you feet - go to a store and have yourself fitted for the right brand of pointe shoes if it's your first time.


How do you get pionte shoes?

visit your local dance wear store and they should be able to fit you for pointe shoes. You can also order them online. Make sure your ballet instructor approves you to begin dancing en pointe before you purchase a pair though :)


Where is the best place to buy pointe shoes?

Hi - You want to buy pointe shoes anywhere there are professional fitters. The fitters are necessary if its your first pair, and if you want to try a different brand, they're also very handy. To find a store in your area, just Google or Bing it.


How can you make homemade pointe shoes?

ABSOLUTLEY NOT! It would be very dangerous. Pointe shoes allow a dancer to go up on her toes in ballet. Only under the recommendation of her instructors is a dancer who is at least 12 with very good ballet technique allowed to go en pointe! After recommendation of your instructor you go to a local dance store and you are fitted for your first pair of pointe shoes. The fitting may take very long because it is so crucial to get the perfect fit for your foot type. These pointe shoes are made of VERY special material by shoe-makers called cobblers. There is absolutely NO WAY you could make your own pointe shoes. You need very special machines and tools. I'm sorry, but yes you do need to spend about $45-90 every time you need a new pair of pointe shoes. There is no way around this, but you can buy Jet Box Glue to help your pointe shoes last longer. I heard this helps a lot! Many online dance stores carry them.
