Russian Pointe Shoes now at Centerstage

You asked for it, and now you can get it at Centerstage. We are now stocking two styles of Russian Pointe shoes: the Entrada and the Rubin.

Entrada is a revolutionary shoe specially designed for dancers with very low arches. The pre-arched sole mimics the shape of the foot on pointe, enchancing longevity while minimizing break-in. Dancers with high arches will experience decreased pressure on the front of the foot. Dancers with very low arches will find it easier to reach full pointe. Both will enjoy more flattering appearance and improved comfort.

Rubin (Russian for “ruby”) has a wide toe platform and low crown. This model has a pre-arched shape that mimics the shape of the foot on pointe, enhancing longevity while minimizing break-in. Dancers with high arches will experience decreased pressure on the front of the foot. Dancers with very low arches will find it easier to reach full pointe.

The Rubin is part of the Jewels Collection, which is characterized by its sleek and elegant pleatless toe platform that eliminates fringing, improves balance, and enhances the appearance of the dancer’s elegant foot lines.


Sweet Feet Foot Spray

I was intrigued when Jeanette Wilson, a former Centerstage employee, told me about her creation Sweet Feet, which is a foot spray that gives you just that - sweet feet. Here is her story:

“All dancers have experienced the embarrassment of stinky feet after dance class. After all, our feet are overworked and crammed in skintight leather, cloth and even plastic shoes for hours. Dancers are rightfully proud of their feet. Why should we be horrifyingly embarrassed of them when we take our shoes off? After trying many disappointing traditional sprays, I wanted to create my own. Working with a fellow dancer who was also a raw fragrance sales rep, I smelled dozens of fragrances and finally combined my favorites to develop the perfect light, refreshing and sweet smelling foot spray! I gave all my dancer buddies samples to get their feedback. They LOVED it!! Taking our shoes off after class now invoked numerous inquiries into that sweet smell. The fragrance is enhanced with a variety of herbs and natural ingredients to kill germs and deodorize the feet as well. My family helped me name the spray “Sweet Feet” and my uncle sketched the dancer’s feet shown on the label. My sister and brother attach the labels to the bottles by hand and my mom takes orders from Southern California and ships Sweet Feet to dancers across the United States. ”

Sweet Feet is also available at Centerstage. If you are curious but not convinced, please feel free to stop by and sample it!

Dr Woodle - A Great Podiatrist for Dancers

As dancers, taking care of our feet is important. There is a great resource here in Seattle that you may not be aware of. Dr Woodle works with the dancers from the Pacific Northwest Ballet, so he understands the issues that dancers have with their feet, particularly ballet dancers. If you are having some issues that you think a doctor should take a look at, he is the one to call.

Premier and Kaliste Pointe Shoes by Merlet

We just got in two new styles of pointe shoes by Merlet, the makers of the ever so popular Dedicace shoe. The two new styles are the Premiere and the Kaliste.
The Premiere pointe shoe has a very comfortable box that fits most feet. The box and base are extremely strong and the new materials used make it very comfortable. The polycarbonate sole is flexible and strong. The Kaliste pointe shoe is satin in front and the rear part is made of canvas that stretches lengthwise to follow the shape of the heel more closely. This provides a very sleek look when up on pointe. The molded polymer box provides excellent comfort for the foot.
If you are someone who wears pointe shoes, we hope you will come in and try them on. We want your feedback, and if you perhaps are still on the quest for your perfect pointe shoe, maybe one of these styles will be it!
