In this video, American Ballet Theatre Soloist Léa Fleytoux describes the process she uses to optimize her pointe shoes. Each week, ABT provides dancers with up to seven pairs of pointe shoes, which can cost between $100 and $200 a pair. Please consider a donation to help ensure that ABT can continue to support our extraordinary artists with pointe shoes and everything they need to make ballet magic happen onstage.

Every gift made before December 31, 2024, will be matched by a dedicated, anonymous donor who has pledged to double gifts up to a total of $250,000. Your support will help ABT unlock this critical funding.
ABT is entering its 85th year of pursuing its mission: "To create, to present, to preserve and to extend the great repertoire of classical dancing, through exciting performances and educational programming of the highest quality, presented to the widest possible audience."
Your support enables the Company to bring dance to audiences in New York, the U.S., and around the world. To learn more about ABT, its programming, and its educational efforts, please visit bit.ly/MEMEYE2
