SHOES!
In honor of The Dance School implementing it's first shoe exchange, I thought I would share a short video from a series about the New York City Ballet. This particular video is about pointe shoes. Pointe shoes are worn by ballet dancers ONLY when they are fairly experienced and strong enough to wear the shoes safely- usually not before age 12 and, only then, if they have had several years of good ballet training. In watching the video, we learn just how quickly some dancers go through a pair of shoes and how individual the fit of these special shoes can be. This is just one video in a documentary series about this exemplary company.
Enjoy!

Let's Get Started!
Classes start Wednesday September 10th and we are so excited to get started!
I thought I would use this blog post to provide a few links to websites that are my "go-to's" for dance apparel. You can find the required uniform clothing on these websites as well as extras- sweatshirts, hair accessories, dance bags, etc.
Discount Dance Supply:
http://www.discountdance.com/
Just for Kix:
http://www.justforkix.com/
All About Dance:
http://www.allaboutdance.com/
Dancewear Solutions:
http://www.dancewearsolutions.com/
You will certainly find similar items, with comparable prices, on all of these websites. You may also find uniform items at local dance retail stores and stores such as Target, Walmart and Payless Shoes.
One more wonderful website is Crafterina Ballerina. This is a fun ballet resource with useful information for parents and teachers as well as a link to an Etsy store selling simple ballet craft items.
