Dance stores
Embarking on any new activity requires a certain amount
of knowledge beforehand, and dancing is no exception. With the wrong
information, you may end up with uncomfortable clothing/shoes that make
it difficult to move. Specialized dance stores are valuable sources
for helpful hints and instruction.
Dance stores will give beginners helpful insight regarding:
• Footwear
• Bodywear
• Legwear
• Instructional books/magazines
• Competitions
Dance stores are excellent for helpful tips. For example, a leotards
are measured in girth (the measurement of the torso from top of the
shoulder, through between your legs and back up to the same shoulder
where you started). Because of this two standard “mediums”
could actually have a very different-fitting leotard.
