The best Pointe Shoe fitting in NYC! Bloch and Capezio…read morestores are brand owned and only sell their own brand. I went to On Stage, what a difference! The fitter was super professional. In addition to Bloch and Capezio, which they also carry, I was able to try on and compare other brands, Suffolk, R Class, Virtisse, Nikolay, Merlet, and made the perfect choice! Great store!

Let me preface: I live in NYC. Meh service from bitter wishfuls mad at their day job is standard…read more But shopping at OnStage is misery making. The staff is terrible. An even mildly experienced dancer will be aghast at their lack of knowledge for pointe shoe fitting. I've even seen the staff breaking shoes during pointe shoe fittings and have tried on shoes that have obviously been pre-broken. WTH is going on here?!? Every time I forget how terrible this place is and need something, I walk out with regret and a newfound resolution to not return.

I think…read morethis was probably the worst customer experience I ever had among all shops/restaurants in Ridgefield. If you know the size or style you want, I'd recommend you just go to amazon or anywhere else. Not so much for the price but really for shopping experience. The shop is the only place sell dance cloth in town. When I visited, the owner was not helpful. I asked questions about dance shoes/clothes, she looked at me and turned to another customer in the shop. So the other customer answered my question.... I mean... never had that experience before. maybe she was not in a good mood to answer questions?!
