I got my jetstreams 2 months ago give or take a day and they are amazing! This is my first time on pointe, and they fitted me with gms, and other Bloch styles...but jetstreams were the best for me. They don't come with the little white pillow in the bottom of the box, but that is ok. I don't use any padding inside and it doesn't hurt too bad. I broke them in quite easily (using a door) and they are great so far! Good luck :)
really any kind of pointe shoe is good just make sure u get fitted
Bloch sylphide are very good, not too strong and good for a beginner's foot that is not too strong. Very easy to break in. other types of bloch shoes can be more difficult to break in.
Yes, Bloch Respect tap shoes are good shoes for tap dancing. Bloch is one of the top brands of dancewear, and Bloch Respect tap shoes are very comfortable.
I've always worn Cecilia Kerche. They last pretty long and are quite comfortable. But everyone's feet are different, and you should always get professionally fitted for your pointe shoes. Good luck !
My favourite brand/shop would definitely be Bloch. Sansha and Capezio are also good. It depends on where you live and what your uniform is. I live in Australia and my school prefers Bloch shoes and uniform To find the shop, google maps or google the name (eg. Bloch) and find out where the closest shop is :)

Hi, I am a ballet dancer and many people have what is known as a "long island toe". It really depends on how good your arch is but i would recommend freeds, mirella, chaccotts, the rubins by Russian pointe, bloch, or capezio.
No, you need to break in your pointe shoes yourself. Anaheim Ballet offers a video on breaking in pointe shoes. Just type Anaheim Ballet The Point, or just type in breaking in pointe shoes and videos should pop up based on that. Shutting your pointe shoes in a door helps. Good luck!
It is a good idea to so they do not fray.
A good way to break in pointe shoes is to just wear them around the house with socks over the top. Another way is to do gentle rises everyday through the ball of the foot, bending whilst on pointe and then coming back down through the ball. After a while the pointe shoes should become bendier and easier to use.
You can totally wear socks over your pointe shoes on carpet if you want to warm up your feet. Just remember that it's never a good idea to wear socks on top of your pointe shoes to go on pointe, as it's really slippery (learned from bad experiences) and don't go on pointe on carpet (twisted an ankle a couple times doing that) unless you mean dance carpet, as in, the flooring in your dance studio.
It depends more on if you like them or not. They will give your feet a nice look, but its more important for you to be comfortable.
well i am only 13 and i started a few years ago and energetics is a really good brand to start off with because they have a lot off support but as the years pass mabey try a better looking ballet shoe like capisio or bloch they are great brands but if you are talking about pointe shoes then..... well mainly it is what shoes fits you best some people say that the best for beginners is bloch (heritage) because it has a sqwishy padding at the bottom but i didn't start with that i started with a grishko that's a great brand and they look good to but they don't have extra padding it is just normal and sooooo gooood !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
