What to wear for dance classes

Generally we recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing for warm-up exercises and dancing. Full skirts, loose or stretch trousers, and shorts are fine. Narrow or full-length skirts and tight or low-slung trousers are not recommended.

Shoes - Leather or canvas Jazz shoes (most versatile), canvas or leather ballet flats, Grecian sandals, character or Ghillie/Celtic shoes - all with leather, suede or non-marking soles, or dance socks designed for turning such as BlochSox (see Bloch).
Please avoid heavy street shoes, sneakers/sports/rubber soles, and high heels.
When buying dance shoes, we recommend that you get advice about fitting, and try them on first, to ensure your safety and comfort.

Dance Shoes (18th C)

See Bloch - for information about types of shoes, sizing, fitting for dance,
and list of retail stores in Sydney and interstate.
