About More To The Pointe

My Story

“My best experience yet has been with the Gaynor Minden pointe shoes and I’m passionate about making them more readily available than ever to Sydney dancers” Jodie Muir.

Jodie Muir trained at the Australian Ballet School, and went on to complete her RAD teaching certificate. She has been teaching for over 15 years during which time she has taught beginners through to pre-professionals, exposing her to many different feet in all types of ballet shoes. After Jodie experienced two stress fractures herself at the ages of 16 then 17, she feels passionate about the safety and health of dancers feet!
