A website for dancers, dance teachers and others interested in dance
If you live near the central east coast of Florida, be sure to check out Melbourne Dancewear. This store has been serving the dance community since 1983, and they have a good selection of dancewear, as well as a helpful staff. While you are in Melbourne, take some time to enjoy the downtown area–there are a nice selection of stores and restaurants. (Try Island Pasta Company or Meg O’Malleys for a nice lunch, and stop in Indian River Soap for a little aromatherapy.)
This one is for all my readers in the UK. Porselli is a dancewear company that carries the good stuff. Here you’ll find names like Bloch, Capezio and Sansha, along with everything from accessories for Flamenco dance to tutus. If you haven’t already heard of them, take a peek.
Leo’s Dancewear has been around for more than 80 years and they sell costumes, accessories and shoes in addition to dancewear. It is one of the best-known names in the business, and you can find deals on everything from skirts to leotards at their stores, or you can order something through one of their authorized dealers. Dance studios can get the catalogue for recital costumes as well.
