For Dancers…By Dancers

When we decided to open The Dance Shoppe in 2005, we wanted our first priority to be the delivery of a superior shopping experience to every customer who walked through our door. Since that first day, we have worked hard to achieve and maintain the level of service, quality and consideration we ourselves would like to receive when visiting a local retailer.

The Dance Shoppe has two locations – in the Northern VA / Washington Metro Area & the greater Charlottesville VA area – and we are committed to being a superior resource for our movement arts communities, near and far. Our Customer Service teams are led by professionals who are also teachers of dance and movement arts, choreographers and coaches; we pride ourselves in being “for dancers…by dancers,” and truly care about helping our customers find exactly what they need.

Looking for pointe shoes? For over 14 years, our stores have been their area’s top destination for the perfect pointe shoe fit. You can request a Pointe Shoe Fitting appointment by contacting us at our Centreville location at 703.815.3205 or at our Downtown Charlottesville location at 434.971.6888.

We look forward to seeing you soon! We are ready to show you the difference that shopping with us can make!
