This year, 2015, we are celebrating our 15th anniversary. In April 2000, I looked back at my dancing experience, "Nutcracker" at the Manoel Theatre, having performed the Dance of the Snowflakes and the Spanish Chocolates. I enjoyed it thoroughly, but I did have to go through four pairs of pointe shoes - and the Shellac idea didn't work as 1. my feet were quite strong and 2. I'm not exactly a lightweight and, worst of all, 3. it damaged my ballet tights. I even went through a pair of Rusbal, which were very tough shoes. I decided to source my own directly from the manufacturers, since back then I was dancing some 3 - 4 times a week plus practising at home to keep up the strength.

Back then, the Internet did not have such a widespread presence in Malta - I think we were still on dial-up or just about changing over to ADSL.  A close friend of mine suggested that, therefore, I should make the hassle worth it by supplying my friends.  There was born the little business, which I then called En Pointe. As soon as my first order arrived, made of a mix of pointe shoes and ballet shoes as well as a couple of leotards, I began to ask around for interest.

Two years later, my teacher Ms Nina Winter (Zammit) suggested I speak to Elvia at Palkett, the Yada Shop. The uptake was immediate and I never looked back.  We have since been supplying a number of schools. Elvia has now retired, but I still liaise with the business she helped to create with Delina, who supplies me with YADA's uniforms and other custom-made dancewear.  Delina's sister, Rose, runs my shop beautifully at the College - were it not for her, I would be at a massive loss. Palkett is the physical shop that runs The Ballet Shop's business locally. The Ballet Shop ships both locally and abroad.  Shipping to Malta is free of charge, but buyers can also opt to collect their orders at Palkett.

In view of the 15th anniversary, The Ballet Shop - and even Palkett - will be offering a number of discounts which we will be publishing from time to time - watch our space.  If you want to be updated via email whenever we have an offer (which we do regularly, and not just on occasions like this - these are the special ones) please send us a private message with your email address. We will be getting back to you shortly! 

Time for more discounts!

Here at The Ballet Shop we feel it is high time to clear certain items and make room for new goods.  Innovation is important! So we have placed certain pointe shoes on sale - they are the fantastic canvas pointe shoes.  Canvas pointe shoes give a more matte look, which is perfect for those who do not quite like the satiny sheen.  If you are one of these people, or if you simply want a spare pair of pointe shoes at a very reasonable price, then I suggest you take a look at our shop on ebay. Don't forget that we give postage discounts on multiple orders and we ship worldwide!

Have you checked our discounted sneakers?

Hurry up! Our dance sneakers section is going crazy with sales - we have reduced prices of items all round, which means that our shoes are more affordable.  These shoes are fantastic for hip hop, jazz, street dance, or even aerobics and zumba and similar workout classes.  Most are even great for hanging out!  Lots of items await you at discounted prices, and not just in this section. Browse at The Ballet Shop and email us should you have any queries!

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.
