Dancers will answer the following questions:
Choose shoe brand, style, size, width, shank, vamp?
Adjust your shoes throughout your training and a career?
Decide where to sew ribbons and elastics?
Darn your shoes and why would you?
Make your shoes last longer?
Manage blisters, toe nails, cracked heels and more?
Decide what to wear inside your shoes? Tape, ouch pouch, spacers etc.
Plus we will talk about training on pointe – the muscles, the lines, the fatigue, the injuries and more.
This clinic ideally works in conjunction with a master class.
