This is the first time I have ever reviewed a business, but this shop was so amazing that I had to comment. First of all, I am not a small woman and typically hate going to dance shops because they only have clothes for children and women who are small. However, at this shop, I was able to find leotards and tights in plus sizes! They also supply of shoes and accessories as well as clothing. The selection is vast and they stock multiple items of each size. The two women that were there and helped me were so friendly and helpful that I am looking forward to returning. They helped me find what I needed and then when I had questions they were knowledgeable and very kind. They even offered to contact one of their distributers and ask if they would make some plus size skirts as well as create a specific style for me, but didn't make me on place a special order. Their reasoning was that if I wanted a bigger thigh length chiffon ballet skirt, others probably would as well. Since I attend KU and live in Lawrence, Dance Shoppe is a bit of a hike to get to, but well worth it and I will absolutely be making the trip again. I would suggest Dance Shoppe to anyone who needs dance wear. There is no need to do what I did and go to all of the different shops in the Kansas City area, which the sizing and selection can be depressing. Dance Shoppe caters to all shapes, from the "typical" ballerina to more of a curvy dancer. read more
