R-Class AD19 Astra Pointe Shoes

💪 Choose Your Perfect Shank Strength

DanceWear Corner offers the R-Class AD19 Astra Pointe Shoe in three shank options — because every dancer's strength, experience level, and preference is different. Not sure which to choose? Here’s a quick guide to help you find your best match:

🩰 Soft Shank

Perfect for developing dancers or those who prefer a more flexible feel. Encourages flexible roll-through and muscle engagement, especially helpful during strengthening phases.

🩰 Medium Shank

A balanced option ideal for dancers who need both flexibility and support. This shank provides a controlled roll-through while offering enough resistance for stability on pointe. Great for intermediate to advanced dancers.

🩰 Hard Shank

Designed for experienced dancers with strong feet who need extra support. The hard shank maintains shape longer and offers powerful push-off and control for demanding choreography and performance schedules.

💬 Still Deciding? We’ve Got You.

Choosing the right shank can feel overwhelming — we get it. Your pointe shoes are an extension of your body, and the right support makes all the difference.

If you're just starting out or building strength, a soft shank might give you the flexibility and feedback you need to grow. If you're looking for a little more structure without giving up that roll-through, the medium shank is a great in-between. And if your feet are strong and you're craving extra support for long days or powerful dancing, the hard shank has your back (well... your toes 😉).

Every dancer is different, and sometimes it takes trying a few to find what truly works for you. Need more guidance? We’re always happy to help — or you can schedule a fitting with us in Orlando for expert advice tailored to your feet and goals.
