RESOURCES
JAZZ SHOES
This tends to be the footwear of choice for our younger dancers (ages 2-11). These are great for classes like jazz, belles prep, or any class with turns.
HALF SHOES
This is the most popular turning footwear for middle school students and older. Available in leather or canvas.
KINETIC BANDS
Kinetic Bands are a great training tools for dance because they provide resistance and allow for full range of motion so dancers can get stronger and increase cardio without changing their normal workout routine.
