Jazley FaithIf you're a hardcore Pointe Shop fan, you'll know that any video with Josephine & Gg is going to be not only fun, but super educational. This video is such a pleasure to watch because Josephine and Gg bring out the ultimate pointe shoe nerds out of each other. Gg came to Josephine's first store (back then it was Dancer's Choice) for a fitting, and the rest is history. As she says in the video, "I walked in for shoes & left with a job!" Gg never went en pointe as a kid - but as an adult. This, with her...
Pointe Shoe Fitter Reacts to BTS Black Swan

"I'm so excited because I'm reacting to BTS and I'm Korean" This week, Josephine reacts to the world's most popular boyband: BTS! While we try to keep most of the react content ballet related, this 7-member group luckily has a song called "Black Swan." Don't worry, no scary magical bird transformation in this version. Josephine watched the intro to the song from the band's performance at the MMA's in 2020. This performance has been considered highly artistic and out-of-the-box for a male music group, but is studded with a beautiful set and ensemble of dancers. What did she think? Watch...

Since the video is quite old, it's a bit hard to tell much more - but we're interested. If you or anyone you know has...

Do you love our Tik Tok react videos? Thank dancingwithmackenzie! This week, Josephine reacted to one of the OG ballet YouTubers: dancingwithmackenzie! Josephine's been a long time fan of this dancer/creator, but hadn't seen this particular video. In this skit video, Mackenzie acts out 3 types of dancers at their first pointe shoe fitting. We'll let you watch the video to see how that turns out - but long story short, Josephine found this video SUPER relatable. P.S. Mackenzie might have a future as a pointe shoe fitter ;)
