Signed up for a beginner ballet class but had none of the shoes or leotards. Went in totally clueless, staff helped out a ton and answered all my questions!

Always have our dance needs and if they don’t have our exact size they can order and get the items in quickly!

We took advantage of our short trip to find quality dance shoes for the little one. I called to make sure they had a shoe that could fit a little 3 year old. Of course they did. The lady up front was very friendly and truly helpful. Thank you!

This place is great! Super clean. Not over stuffed with inventory. The owner is so sweet and helpful. Fitting rooms are a good size so you and your kiddo are comfortable. We will definitely be going back!
