The staff that works here is helpful and friendly. They are very knowledgeable and have a wide range of sizes and accessories available in store. Please support this local dance store. I love being able to drop in and pick up what I need vs waiting and ordering online.

I was referred to this shop by Dance Academy of SoCal - the owner Ashely did the best pointe shoe fitting I have ever had. I left with two great pairs of shoes. I highly recommend her shop for leotards, skirts, dance shoes, pointe shoes etc. I will definitely return when I need new shoes :)
