Dance Art : Pointe Shoes
For those dancing en pointe we have Pointe & Demi-Pointe shoes from Gaynor Minden & Bloch. Pointe shoes must fit like a glove and with a choice of fitting in the length, width, box size, heel height & shank, it takes a little extra time to make sure the fitting is correct.
We recommend calling to make an appointment for a pointe shoe fitting before you come in, so you can be sure one of our trained fitters will be available to assist you.
Even if you have purchased pointe shoes before, your requirements may change as you gain strength and experience, so your fitting should be checked every time you come in for a new pair.
Pointe shoe styles available at Dance Art:
> Bloch - Sylphide, Sonata & Demi-Pointe
> Gaynor Minden - our trained fitters will help you find the correct size, call your nearest Dance Art store to book a fitting.
