Jackie asked:


I just went en pointe, and got my shoes yesterday. I have just been walking around and going on pointe and stuff, then I had a private lesson, where my teacher loosened the shoe a bit, by like breaking the sole so it would fit my arch. So we did spend some time breaking them in. But whenever I go on pointe, it really hurts my toenails, is this normal for your first time? Any advice appreciated!

trythis asked:


I have recently taken up modern jive and wanted to get some comfortable shoes for dancing in. Most shoes have rubbery soles which makes it difficult to do the turns properly and taking small steps to do the turn looks clumsy. Can anyone suggest a way of making the soles more slippery so I can spin better?

anahahamama asked:


My daughters toe shoes were professionally fitted and seemed to work just fine the first few times she wore them(they are her 4th pair). Now that they are broken in, however, they keep slipping off her heels. Can I fix this problem by repositioning the elastics or laces? Or, should we return to the store (which is a 3 hour drive for us)?
