FAQ

Common questions about our heels workshop

What should I wear?
Dress to impress!!! We encourage you to wear something you feel confident and sassy in but can also move and groove in. Because of floor work , we recommend wearing pants or bringing knee pads.

 

What type of shoes do I need?
We recommend wearing a heel that is supportive to the ankle. Something with a strap or an ankle boot that has extra support. A thicker heel is easier to dance in. Heels are NOT mandatory but are strongly recommended.
  • Ankle booties
  • Wedged sneakers (recommended for beginners)
  • Stilettos (advanced dancers)

 

Should I bring anything? 
The following items are optional:
  • Water
  • Knee pads (available to rent at the studio)
  • Sneakers (if you don’t want to dance in your heels the entire time)
