The Size Dilemma!

I think this is one of our more important posts for you who purchase items online!

Have a look at our very brief article, The Size Dilemma, and look at how you should be calculating your size!

Remember size is indeed very important when it comes to dancewear and dance shoes, as it can cause injury or lead to mistakes not being corrected! Injuries do heal but they sometimes remain a weakness - don't risk!

New Website launched!

An astrologer has recently told us that, to paraphrase, the reason things endure is that they are still relevant. Or perhaps resilient. Or both.  And we have in fact enduring relevance - we are still here today, fifteen years later!

To celebrate, we have launched our new face - a brand new website!   To start, we are featuring a number of discounts, so as to let you take the advantage of our celebratory mood!

Our shop section brings you the best of the best, while our blog section will pretty much be repeated here. Do feel free to browse around and ask questions - but we do have a FAQ section in case you have questions that many people tend to ask!  We also accept comments on our blog  - both here and on the actual Shop Blog!

Finally you can contact us in order to answer any specific query you have which might not be on the generic website! Keep in touch! 

A whole new category - for our twelfth anniversary!

We wish to open the month of May by introducing the new category - our Bargain Corner The Ballet Shop!  We bring here some of the best bargains we have to offer, simply to bring you the best available products at excellent discounts. These may be end-of-line or discontinued products, or products priced simply to sell so that we can afford to have new items on our shelves.

For the month of May we are also celebrating 12 years since the opening of The Ballet Shop online - and we are therefore offering a large number of items at a discount! Click on the images below to find out more!

Back to School

I know this is a little late in coming. The scholastic year has started again, and with it, the mad rush to get your kids organised for their dance class, be it ballet, jazz, tap or any other discipline.

It is always exciting to see little children in their new outfits, especially when they are first starting off. The new leotard and skirt, new ballet shoes... It is important that the children remain well groomed throughout the year, and not only during the first lessons. A large portion of the marks in a dance exam or assessment goes to grooming, and grooming and discipline are an important part of dance. Also, if the child is well-groomed and looks smart, she is more likely to put an effort into her dancing.

If you have not yet got your child's dancewear, take a look at our ebay store, or at our online ballet shop. We have a vast range of sizes of full sole children's ballet shoes - these are perhaps the most important item to be monitored. An ill fitting shoe could mean damage to your child's feet - which is even worse than bad grooming!

We also have some ballroom shoes on sale at the moment. We do not have all the sizes but will be willing to try to help if we can procure your size.

Happy shopping and good luck to everyone for the new scholastic year.
