Awsome Store

I am a Bay Area native and have been dancing ballroom since 1988 and teaching since 1994. I am familiar with the local ballroom supply shops and can easily say that Stephanie has the best store for ballroom shoes in the area. I always send my own students to her and I would easily recommend this store to anyone interested in buying ballroom shoes.



She also carries a decent supply of CDs and other ballroom dance supplies, but shoes are especially well stocked and if she doesn't have it in the store she will happily order it for you.



The selection may be "limited" by way of "styles" but her selection is more than sufficient for dancers interested in buying shoes for standard, latin, rhythm, or ballroom practice; and the shoes she does carry are high in quality.



The shoes I wear every day for teaching are "Stephanies" and it was by sheer trust (in Stephanie) and curiosity that I even bought them in the first place, being a loyal Supadance (and still am when it comes to competition shoes) wearer. These shoes are the best I have found, they are comfortable, sturdy, and the heel is closer to a regular competition size heel so better to train in. I would highly recommend these for women who are looking for a good practice shoe.



Happy Dancing!

Great Service

I am getting married in a few months so my fiancee and I are taking dance lessons to prepare for our first dance. I went to Ballroom Connection to buy some dance shoes when a coworker referred me to this business.







I went there on a Saturday. The store was packed with customers. The lady was very helpful and worked hard to attend to every customer in the store. As soon as she found out we are getting our wedding shoes, she explained to us what we would need and what our options were. She told us we could just get the one pair for our wedding day, or we could get a pair now for taking lessons and practicing and order the same style in white for the wedding day. She also helped us with the fit, the size, and to pick out the style and the color to match my wedding dress. She then helped my fiancee to select his patent leather shoes to match the tux he will be wearing.







The entire shopping experience was very pleasant and easy. She was very experienced and friendly and helpful. My fiancee and I have decided to stay with dancing after the wedding because it has been so much fun. I definitely will go back to Ballroom Connection to buy other dance shoes in the future and will recommend it to my friends who are thinking of taking up dancing.



As a previous person noted, there are no "boards" in the store. The dance shoes are all seperated by brands and the brand name is above each section making it easy to find a specific brand. I assume that would be helpful if you know what brand you are looking for. You can just go to that brand's section to see what styles are in stock. The store is very well laid out and it is very easy to find things you are looking for. They have a great selection of DVDs that teach you how to dance. They lady that helped my fiancee and I explained that each DVD is taught by well known dancers and that it is just like having a private lesson in your own home.

The Art of Service

Ballroom Connection is a great place to buy your next pair or your first pair of dance shoes. The staff is very professional and they have extensive dance experience. They know how to fit you in a dance shoe and keep in mind they're not the same as street shoes. What "boards" was the previous reviewer talking about? There is very little to read in the store. The shoes on display dominate the wall space. I am a ballroom social dancer and competitor, and I have been happily purchasing my shoes, dance music, and videos from Ballroom Connection for many years. In all of my many visits to Ballroom Connection, I have yet to have anything but phenomenal service from their knowledgeable staff.
