Answer 3

Hi lilballerina,

This IS fun.  Here are my answers:

1- Favorite brand? Grishko Pro 2007's.  Grishko is primarily a Russian brand, but is stationed in America. Therefore, it's been influenced over the years by American and European brand manufacturing techniques and strengths. It's not necessarily the best shoe, but it's perfect for my feet seeing as I have Russian arches and need American and European support.

2- Favorite toe pad? I don't use toe pads.

3- Favorite blister fixers? I don't usually get blisters, seeing as I've never used toe pads, so I have huge calluses.  But when I do get them, I use New Skin.  Great stuff!

4- Favorite performance en pointe? Oh gosh... I've done a LOT... probably Coppélia, just because I love that show.

5- What schools you attend? Did I attend?  Do I attend? I've attended numerous intensives at God knows how many schools.  But mostly I trained at the training academy of my ballet company, PSPA.

Thanks! Keep dancing♥
