Dance Shoes

A good fitting and comfortable dance shoe is a dancers best friend. It provides support but still allows you to feel the floor and lets you flex, point and move freely.

Here are some tips for a well fitting ballet dance shoe:
1. Make sure you are wearing tights you normally wear while trying on shoes.
2. Place the shoe over the toes and gently slide it over the heel.
3. Stand flat in the shoe. If your toes curl, go up one size.
4. Point your foot. Your heel should stay on the foot and there should not be any gaping in the width of the shoe.
5. Experiment with another size/width to be sure the shoe fits properly.
