This week, we join Josephine back in Tampa, FL at YAGP Finals. And she's doing something a little different - discussing demi pointe shoes.

There were a few comments that mentioned a cultural dance associated with this - and Instagram algorithm has delivered. How did Josephine react? You probably know, but it's way more fun to see it for yourself ;)

YAGP's guidelines do not allow 10 year olds to compete en pointe, and 11 year olds are strongly discouraged. However, during the...
