INFO FOR BEGINNERS: For your comfort, safety, & our peace of mind (!) please wear shoes that are : a comfortable b that have heel and ankle support c that slide on the floor so you can turn, but are not too slippery! d that have a fairly broad heel i.e. not stilettos to be suitable. b Flimsy slingbacks or mules are not suitable. Although they may feel cool on a hot day, there is no support for your ankle and you can easily turn awkwardly and twist it. d Stilettos of any sort are not suitable - (they do dreadful things to your back and cause damage to wooden floors - also to other's feet if you happen to step on someone by accident!!) There are some steps where you need to take the weight on the heel, so a broad heel base and a lowish heel are good here. IT'S NOT NECESSARY TO BUY SPECIAL DANCE SHOES. THE MAIN THING IS THAT THEY ARE SAFE & COMFORTABLE & SUITABLE FOR YOUR FEET. PLEASE ASK US IF YOU'RE NOT SURE. If you do want to buy specialist dance shoes, Felix in Beach Road,Littlehampton There are plenty of other shops and online stores. |
