What is the difference between mirella advanced pointe shoes to mirella proffecinal pointe shoes?
They fit the same. The professional shank isn't glued down all the way by the heel, so it can be removed for expedited break-in time. Even if you keep the shank, they will break in much faster than the advanced, yet they do die quicker.
You are on demi pointe and want pointe shoes this is your sixth year of ballet and you really want to try pointe shoes should you buy them?
If you must, but seventh year of ballet is better imo.
Do pointe shoes need to be broken in or can you buy prebroken in shoes such as gaynor minden for comfort and durability?
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!
Where do you get pointe ballet shoes?
You should be able to buy pointe shoes from the same place you buy your normal ballet shoes, or another dance supplies shop. It is very important to ensure they fit properly, as otherwise you may hurt yourself. Pointe shoes should only be worn by dancers who know what they are doing, and have a teacher.
What is ballet called when it's not en pointe?
"En pointe" refers to dancing in pointe shoes. Non-pointe ballet shoes are demi-pointe shoes, and the dancing is "en demi-pointe".
