Before You Shop for Dancewear
We’ve carefully selected these brands and styles for their comfort, fit, durability, and quality. Please purchase only the items listed for your dancer’s level. Where more than one style of the same item is listed, either one is acceptable.
As your child outgrows items, you’re welcome to buy, sell, or exchange gently used official Star Dance Studio uniform items with other studio families. A QR code is posted in the studio lobby to access our Google Sheet, where you can buy, sell, or exchange approved uniform items.
While other brands may look similar, they often do not provide the same comfort, flexibility, durability, or sound quality. In particular, off-brand tap shoes can mark or scratch our dance floors. For these reasons, only our approved tap shoes may be worn in class.
