The prices are very fair and they even had some shoes on clearance. Character shoes seemed to range from $40-$80. I received very friendly customer service and I was appreciative of the help and advice. One thing I really liked is that they did not try to rush me or force me to choose quickly. They also did not try to push me into buying the more expensive option. Instead, they offered to put shoes on hold for me so that I could think about it and come back if I needed to since I was in between two styles. Another thing I liked is that they had a wood floor inserted into the room with a ballet barre so that people can properly get the feel of a shoe on a dance floor. They also have a bathroom which is always nice. Overall, I highly recommend this dance store! It is so refreshing to find a good one with friendly employees, fair prices, and a wide selection.

An even mildly experienced dancer will be aghast at their lack of knowledge for pointe shoe fitting.

Every time I forget how terrible this place is and need something, I walk out with regret and a newfound resolution to not return.

The service here is amazing! Parents come here with their kids to get everything they need for dance class. The staff are dancers, so they are experts at fitting shoes etc. They have shoes for adults too. When I sign up for a salsa lesson (which has been a goal forever), I'll buy my shoes from here. So far, I got a cute little box with bobby pins and hair bands for myself. Even if you live far, this is the place to go . Selection and service- impeccable!! ‍

A friend has a daughter who is into tap, and shoes by Jason Samuels Smith are sold exclusively through Bloch so I was looking forward to seeing what they had in-store, in addition to some items for myself. Even though I walked into a rather busy shop, I was greeted by a sweet girl right away, and she brought out shoes and some pants I was interested in. There is only one fitting room so there will be a wait if there are more than a few people looking to try on dance/activewear. What fascinated me was watching someone get fitted for pointe shoes, and this took me back so long ago even though I was fitted at a different brand. A cool customer nearby gave me her opinion on the sizing of some pants I was hesitating to try (she teaches over at Alvin Ailey, so I'm taking her word for it) and then she was called over to assist with the fitting. Everyone here seemed to know one another and it made me think of how small the dance world really is. Sadly after trying on the shoes and pants, neither worked but I know I can order the pants online in the size and color I desired. As for the tap shoes, they had the basics (my favorite being the classic black and white oxfords) but the current seasonal color was...yellow. The daughter gave a definite no to those, so my work here was done. Even though I left empty-handed, it was great going down memory lane here at Bloch.

When the lady came to me I explained it's my first time buying shoes and she explained how the shoes are meant to fit and that the nude color is more common than black. She let me try on multiple pairs and was so patient with me. I chose my pair and told her the studio I dance at and got 10% off. The lady made extra holes for me in case the shoes stretched (which they will) and a nice show bag to tote around. I gave four stars because not all sizes were in stock for all shoes on the floor and they couldn't be ordered. This happened for both me and the other two women that were in the store. I will definitely be back!
