Good evening everyone,

i was searching the web and came across this video series on You Tube. It is a multipart series featuring Lady Teri discussing and demonstrating tips on Ballet Boot Training.

Boot Lady Teri - Ballet Boot training Part 1

The funny thing is, the device she mentions in the video i just got in this week from Spain. Side Note: i was taking private lessons with a "real" ballet teacher when she got a Director of Ballet teaching job in another state. Suffice to say, i have no teacher now so i found this device on the web to work on my getting my arches stronger and more flexible for pointe work myself. my real goal of taking ballet and going on pointe is, hopefully, is to walk with grace and elegance in ballet boots for my future Master. i can really feel a difference in my arch after having my foot in the device for 1/2 hour. So if anyone out there is ballet boot training their slave, this is a worth while piece of equipment to look into.

Back to the video: Part 12 shows her in Ballet boots on an elliptical trainer....i know i will keep this in my mind when i am working out on one at the gym from now on. :)
