They always have everything we need - tights, leotards, dance shoes - plus some neat ideas for gifts and fun! They care about meeting our needs and fitting properly. I have appreciated their help with pointe shoes especially. A great store staffed by great people!

Absolutely loved our experience at this dance apparel store! From the moment we walked in, the owner, Erin, was incredibly helpful and welcoming. She took the time to properly fit my 7-year old daughter for both tap and ballet shoes, making sure everything felt just right. Erin was so knowledgeable and patient—her warm, friendly demeanor instantly put us at ease.
The store has a fantastic selection of dancewear and accessories, including some of the cutest dance bags we’ve ever seen. We left with everything we needed and more, and my daughter couldn’t be more excited to wear it all to her dance classes. This is a gem of a store with top-notch customer service. Highly recommend to any dance family!

Arabesque is a gem! My daughter is 8 with long narrow feet-they fitted her with the perfect ballet and jazz shoes. Their stock of leotards are beautiful. My daughter loves stopping by to look at all the merch and Erin always makes her feel so special!!
