I stumbled across this cool website called Ballet Dance Experts, http://www.balletdanceexperts.com/, while looking for information on soft-soled ballet slippers. According to the website's creator, Marissa, she wanted a site for people looking for information on ballet- not just a website selling dance supplies.
One of my favorite things about this site are the pictures that greet you when you fit log on. The first picture I saw was of a man and woman, mid-air in a leap. Their costumes are very simple, but in the man's body in particular, you see athleticism at its best. Every muscle in both of their bodies is toned, actively working, and using technique.
Marissa has articles on picking out the best unitards for dance, when to wear silver pointe/ballet shoes, and even a how-to on walking in ballet stilettos (a new one for me!). Beyond that there are also articles on picking out the best ballet classes for your preschooler, things to look for when picking out ballet barres for your studio, and something that caught my attention- adult ballet classes (because we all know I am at 25 way too old for a ballet career!).
I invite you to take a look at Ballet Dance Experts in addition to our blog, since we are just dancer footcare focused.
Dancingly,
