Character work introduces a different feel underfoot, and the right heel height makes the transition easier.
Learning to work in a heel is easier when the shoe feels secure and proportionate. Our girls’ character shoes from Bloch and Energetiks include flat and low-heel canvas styles for children, with Karacta, Accent and classic low-heel options in the range. They’re purpose-built for dance, giving young dancers a more secure choice than ordinary dress shoes.
For young dancers, a flat or low heel makes character work a more manageable transition from soft dance shoes. The teacher’s heel and colour requirement should lead the choice, followed by a secure fit that does not move around during class. Other disciplines sit together in girls’ dance shoes for families covering a longer timetable.
