Great service. Do not try and save a few pounds by buying online. Go here and get professional advice and fitting.

Very friendly staff, tried their best to help. The shop is small so there can be a little bit of a wait if there are several customers at busier times (after school) but there are seats you can sit on while waiting. They have a lot of stock already in store, however on this occasion not the sizes we needed. The assistant kindly offered to order some in and the text me when they arrived. The prices are slightly more expensive than online shops, but the benefit is you can try on items before buying which is important with dance shoes as each brand fits differently and the shop assistants seem to

Absolutely brilliant service! I went for a pointe shoe fitting and even though I was happy with the third pair I tried on, the staff continued to take me through all of their other pointe shoes to make sure I made the best decision. They were super friendly, and very knowledgeable. They took my opinion into account when advising me on what would be best, and I'm extremely happy with the shoes I've ended up with. Would highly recommend them, and definitely worth the trip.
