Dance Shoes image
Dance shoes enhance your ability to spin and turn while dancing.

Ballroom shoes with a suede or felt sole are the best option for Hand Dancing. Leather-soled shoes grip the floor, hindering smooth movement.

Slip-over shoe covers or heavy cotton socks are suitable alternatives.  Both are available for purchase in class.

*Shoes that have been worn outside are not allowed on the dance floor. You must carry in the shoes you intend to dance in.

A standard women’s dance shoe with a 1- to 1.5-inch Cuban heel is a popular choice. Heels higher than 1.5 inches can be challenging for beginners. Those who prefer a flat shoe with no heel might consider a slip-on jazz shoe.

Consider using sued stick-on sheets for a pair of shoes you already have, if you're not quite ready to buy dance shoes.
