Kids love to dance. It’s pretty amazing to see children as young as 2 years of age start grooving to any music they hear. Moving to music is such a universal human characteristic. In most 3rd world societies, especially in Africa and South America, dance is an activity that is deeply enmeshed into the fabric of daily life and ritual.
In South America for example, anything that involves celebration, involves dancing.
It is important for parents to support their child’s or children’s interest in dancing.
And one of the best ways to do that is to provide them with the correct kids dance shoes and apparel. There are so many different dance classes available in your neighborhood for kids who are starting out that require specific types of dance shoes. For example, there are ballet shoes, tap dance shoes, jazz shoes.
There are even different kinds of shoes needed for ballet, such as pointe shoes. There are even specially designed dance sneakers for the swing dancing kid. Another great reason to equip your child with good dance shoes is that it lessens the likelihood of injury while the child is learning. With proper shoes and training, dance becomes an enjoyable past time for your child.
Kids Dance Shoes for All of Dance
Among the many brands of kid’s dance shoes on the market, one name stands out as the industry standard, and that name is Capezio. Capezio shoes have been around since 1887 and they are by far the most established and high quality dance
in the industry. The founder, Salvatore Capezio, was an Italian immigrant cobbler who made his home in York City at the turn of the century. His craftsmanship secrets have been handed down from generation to generation in the Capezio family, and today they boast to be one of the best ballet and point shoes on the market.
Another established brand in the dance world is Bloch dance shoes. They are also considered to be one of the top dance shoe makers in the world because of their reputation for quality since 1932. Although not as long established as the Capezio family, their story is actually quite similar.
Jacob Bloch was a European shoe maker
who also emigrated to the US, and was an avid fan of the ballet. He was sought out by the original Ballet Russe to make ballet and point shoes for them.
Dance has such a tradition and legacy. If your child loves to dance, let him or her become part of that legacy. It’s a good idea to involve your children early into dance programs, especially if they show an aptitude for movement early on.
