Will a regular dress shoe work for a dance shoe?

November 4th, 2011 admin

If you have never taken a dance lesson before it is not necessary to have dance shoes for your first lesson. Men can wear a comfortable dress shoe. No rubber soles! This is very important, because rubber soles will make it more difficult for you to learn how to dance as the rubber will get stick to the floor. Women should wear a comfortable heel that will not slide off of the foot. Make sure its not too high! If you have trouble walking, you will have trouble dancing. After a few lessons you should look into getting dance shoes. Dance shoes have a suede sole which will glide across the floor very easily. There are many different types of dance shoes, so ask your teacher what he or she recommends for the dances you are doing.
