    Oh gawsh, the first pair is just the embodiment of a perfect pointe shoe. This shoe is what I always imagined as a little girl for pointes to look like. Picture perfect 😍

    To be honest, I don’t really know a whole lot about ballet, but love it to bits, and wished I could have been a prima ballerina. But knowing that
    1- a ballet competition was founded by a woman
    2- seems like the sweetest woman ever
    Makes my heart happy. I’d absolutely love to see a video where she shows off her old ballet shoes, talks about her career, talks about her favorite dances she was in, and maybe even attempt one of her favorite dances again

    Yes! We want to see Larissa's Russian pointe shoes!! I was lucky enough to watch two classes at the Vaganova Academy in 1988 when it was still the Soviet Union. I had a private tour of the Museum at the Academy and saw the Kirov Ballet perform Giselle. The whole experience will always be a highlight of my life.

    I love that she's describing how point shoes used to be worse but instead of saying "oh young people have no idea, they have it so much easier" she's like it was worse, and that was bad, new shoes are better :)

    I would love to see her old shoes! What a wonderful video. I haven't been en pointe in over 20 years. Toe pads didn't exist back then. I used to have to tape my toes and use lambs wool for cushion. I used super glue to make my pointe shoes last longer.
    I gotta admit, I'm now wondering what it'd be like to wear point shoes with the new technology and a proper fitting.

  • @madisondean1074
    @madisondean1074 Pƙed rokem +1

    Pointe shoes with a square box always seem to work best for me. But my problem is the heel on my foot. The heel on my foot extends further back. Meaning, if I go a size up in pointe shoes, the shoe is going to feel too big. But the larger platform provided by pointe shoes with a square box has helped me with balancing. I'm an adult dancer and I started at about 17 years of age. The reason why I started on pointe shoes so soon was because of my lower body strength. So don't nitpick me for starting ballet so late in life and because of the fact I dance en pointe!

    Josephine: “No one has perfectly square feet.”
    Me, looking at my square/rectangular feet. 😐
    True story. My mom and I were looking around in the shoe department of a large store years ago. A clerk came over, admiring the ones she was looking at.
    “Did you want to try them on?”
    My mom’s reply was “Bring out the box. It’ll fit me better.”
    Yes, I come by my wide, square feet naturally.

    I would love to see a fitting on someone with flat feet and no instep. I loved doing ballet but knew it would never go anywhere to had to quit and I never had a pretty point. Would be interesting to see how flat feet ballerina's get over the box.

    I just wonder if she actually changed her name. Saveliev would be the male version of the name and Savelieva would be the female form of the name. Family names in Eastern European names tend to be gendered and names with ev/ov endings would take and a for women.

    I’ve noticed that Russians like a square toe...so square in fact that some of their shoes look like clogs. I don’t know why they prefer this...perhaps it’s habit? ...as their girls are light and strong and should have much prettier shoes on their gorgeous feet. I’m almost offended by the ugliness of some of their shoes...on their behalf!
