Just the Right Shoe

Just the Right Shoe

As a Mummy or Daddy with an aspiring dancer, nothing is more exciting for both of you than getting your first tutu and new pair of ballet slippers!

Did you know that ballet slippers are made the same, not with a right and left! When your new pair of ballet slippers arrives, it’s a good idea to write ‘R’ on the shoe intended for the right foot and ‘L’ for the left. Identifying the right and left shoes from the beginning helps with fit and comfort as our Tiny Tutus leather ballet slippers stretch and mould to your ballerina’s individual feet.

Ballet Promotes Social Development in Preschool Children

Ballet Promotes Social Development in Preschool Children

Children, from a very young age are drawn to music. It’s a beautiful thing to watch babies, toddlers and preschool children being to move and dance as soon as they hear a beat.

The physical benefits of dance are well-known and easy to see – but ballet also brings magical social and emotional benefits. Preschool children will learn social skills such as cooperation and peer interaction as well as building self-esteem when they are involved in early childhood appropriate ballet experiences.
