Character & Ballroom Shoes

Character and ballroom shoes bring elegance and flair to the stage, seamlessly blending style with the stability dancers need for theatrical and partnered performances. Character shoes, like those from Capezio or Bloch, feature low to mid-height heels—typically 1.5 to 2.5 inches—and sturdy leather uppers, offering the perfect mix of support and poise for musical theater, tap, or folk dance routines.
