🌟 Extended Saturday Opening Hours 🌟

With the show getting closer, we know everyone is busy getting show ready! To help make fittings a little easier, we are temporarily extending our Saturday opening hours, starting this Saturday 23rd May and ending 20th June. Please note the shop will be closed Saturday 27th June to allow for our theatre rehearsals.

New Saturday hours:
🕚 11:00am – 2:00pm

This will give families a bit more flexibility to pop in for fittings and collect any show items.

✨ A little reminder - please try not to leave fittings too close to the show. While we usually have most items in stock, occasionally we may need to order something in and this allows us enough time to get everything ready for you.

We look forward to welcoming you soon!

Show Checklist - Skin Tone Leotards

All dancers taking part in the show will need a skin tone leotard. These are worn as undergarment under costumes.

These are required for safeguarding during costume changes backstage. They help dancers stay comfortable and appropriately covered at all times or if there are any costume mishaps on stage.

If your dancer already has one from a previous show, please check that it still fits comfortably.

Who needs one?

All dancers performing in the show.

Options:

• Under 5s & P1-6 dancers - can be hired or you are welcome to purchase your own if preferred.

• P7+ dancers - must be have their own (not hired) for hygiene reasons.

We have sample sizes available in store if you would like your dancer to try one on before purchasing so we can ensure the correct fit.

To book a fitting appointment please email us for the booking link, or you are welcome to pop in during our Saturday opening hours.

Please note that boys do not need a leotard - they can wear their own black cycle shorts.

Your dancer’s feet grow faster than you think… which means their dance shoes might be too small before you realise! 🩰

Shoes that are too tight can affect comfort, technique, and even cause blisters or sore toes.

If you notice curled toes, red pressure marks, or sore feet, it might be time for a new pair.

Different brands fit different feet, which is why we stock several options to find the best match for your dancer. Correct well-fitted shoes are essential for safe technique and strengthening.

In-store fittings also help avoid the risk of needing to replace shoes if we feel they have been incorrectly fitted elsewhere. And of course, by visiting us you are also supporting your local dance school and dance shop, which we truly appreciate 😍

If you are unsure whether shoes still fit, feel free to pop in and we will happily check for you. Need an appointment? DM or email us for the booking link.

💃 Show Checklist – Dance Shoes

As we get closer to the show, please make sure your dancer has the correct dance shoes required for their class.

This is a good time to check:
• Shoes still fit comfortably
• They are in good condition and not obviously damaged
• Free of stickers

If you need new shoes or a fitting, or not sure what shoes your child needs for their class, we are always happy to help.

🛍 Pop into the shop during Saturday opening hours (11.00-13.30)
📅 Weekday appointments also available for fittings - get in touch for the booking link.

This month’s team pick – Water Bottles!

As the weather starts to brighten, staying hydrated is more important than ever for our dancers.

Our water bottles are the perfect dance bag essential!

✨ Our ACPA insulated bottle keeps drinks cool and is perfect for busy dance days.
🩰 We also have two lovely dance-themed designs from Rachel Ellen Designs, ideal for our younger dancers who want something fun and practical for class.

A water bottle is a simple but essential item to help dancers stay refreshed and ready to perform at their best. And perfect addition to any dancer’s bag during our busy show term! 💃
