Shoe Store

What kind of shoes should I wear?

The best shoes are made specifically for dancing with either suede or leather soles or, if you like, dance tennis shoes. There are a wide variety of styles to choose from. If you intend to dance regularly, we strongly encourage you to buy a good pair of dance shoes–your feet will thank you.

Next to suede-soled shoes, any shoe with a regular smooth-leather sole is usable. Leather-soled shoes are also an excellent temporary substitution until you can purchase a pair of dance shoes.

Worst of all are rubber-soled shoes. Sneakers, canvas deck-shoes, tennis shoes or anything with a rubber sole should be avoided. Rubber-soled shoes grip the dance floor far too much for comfortable dancing.

If interested in any of the above shoes, please visit the studio or call 732-473-9600 for fitting and purchase.
