Asked via Instagram about order on May 21st, was told "we will look into this and let you know". That was 230pm. Went back on to see if they have any info, not a word back!!!!! I had to reach out again, and this time I'm told both emails address are correct for customer service but do NOT WORK (it was the "server" four times). Not great business practice. Then it was looked into, I was placed on hold and immediately whole on hold, a tracking number was created and I was told "this shipped out today" which is a total lie due to my ability to see tracking, and that shipping label was created while on IG asking about my order. I told them to please cancel, that's super shady to do. They kept saying "it shipped, it shipped" checked for two days, tracking number was invalid, nothing ever left them to come to me total lies. Avoid this store and on 1 dancewear unless you like being swindled. Horrible customer service, non working customer service email addresses for both stores, create shipping labels upon asking for an update, and nothing ever shipped. DO NOT BUY ONLINE!!!!! TOTAL DRAMA AND HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! NEVER AGAIN.

I don't recommend ordering from their website. I ordered pointe shoes and tights online then called…read moreand spoke with them over the phone to make sure they had the pointe shoes. They confirmed they did (I actually waited while they physically checked to find the shoes). Then they sent me a completely different size and wrong color tights! I ordered pink and they sent me caramel tights. So I had to go to the post office and return them. And after 2 weeks of items being returned (delivered and received per usps tracking), still no refund. And just like the other reviews of horrible experiences, I called many times to get their "we will look into it and call you back" and never ever got a return call. I don't think this is a very honest business. How do you mistaken caramel tights for pink ones? And how do you double check the size and send completely different ones? Maybe they try to rid merchandise through their online customers since some may forget to return or find it a huge hassle.

For some reason, I had a heck of a time trying to find this place but once I walked in, I felt an…read moreoverwhelming sense of nostalgia. A friend has a daughter who is into tap, and shoes by Jason Samuels Smith are sold exclusively through Bloch so I was looking forward to seeing what they had in-store, in addition to some items for myself. Even though I walked into a rather busy shop, I was greeted by a sweet girl right away, and she brought out shoes and some pants I was interested in. There is only one fitting room so there will be a wait if there are more than a few people looking to try on dance/activewear. What fascinated me was watching someone get fitted for pointe shoes, and this took me back so long ago even though I was fitted at a different brand. A cool customer nearby gave me her opinion on the sizing of some pants I was hesitating to try (she teaches over at Alvin Ailey, so I'm taking her word for it) and then she was called over to assist with the fitting. Everyone here seemed to know one another and it made me think of how small the dance world really is. Sadly after trying on the shoes and pants, neither worked but I know I can order the pants online in the size and color I desired. As for the tap shoes, they had the basics (my favorite being the classic black and white oxfords) but the current seasonal color was...yellow. The daughter gave a definite no to those, so my work here was done. Even though I left empty-handed, it was great going down memory lane here at Bloch.
