I get it. I was the same way 6 years ago. I saw that a friend had started sewing barefoot shoes for herself and her family and had no idea how she was doing it with kids. At the same time, I was drawn to it because I've always enjoyed handmade crafts. But I wasn't very skilled at them because I didn't have the time.
I decided to give it a try. And I was surprised that it wasn't so hard after all. I did it even though I didn't know how to sew on a machine. All I needed were a few cheap hand tools. I was so excited about it that I learned to sew all 3 basic types of shoes right away that summer - ballerinas, sandals, and lace-up shoes. I made them not only for myself but for my husband and son as well.
They were so soft and comfortable that I haven't wanted to wear another pair since. They didn't push me at the heel or toe and they fit my feet perfectly. My husband and son were also pleased. And after some time, when we noticed that our feet hurt less, my transverse arches stopped falling off, and my husband stopped limping on one foot just because we started wearing these hand-sewn, custom-made barefoot shoes. I decided I wasn't going to keep it to myself. I started teaching others how they can make such original and healthy shoes, too.
I´d love to show you it´s not so difficult to start.

Who will guide you through the course?
Dr. Karolina Castkova

I am a doctor and a mother of four children, and their health is my primary concern. I like to combine modern scientific knowledge with a holistic view of health.
My motivation for deciding to sew my first pair of barefoot ballerinas in 2017 wasn't health. The health benefits only became apparent after some time of wearing hand-sewn, custom-made shoes.
In this course, I will show you all you need to know to decide whether sewing your barefoot shoes is the right fit for you.
