I’ve been dancing quite a bit lately–3 to 4 times quite a bit. It’s getting a bit too hot for the boots, and they look very nice, but they just aren’t the best for dancing. I searched and found a pair of shoes that weren’t rubber soled, and I’ve been wearing those to dance. They are just plain black flats.
At a recent outing I picked up a flyer from Karizmah Dance Shoes. I was headed that direction today and decided I would stop in and check the place out. I looked at their web site and they seemed to have a lot of dance shoes. When it comes to buying shoes, I know what I like–and I like LOTS of shoes. But when it comes to buying dance shoes I was totally clueless. I knew that I wanted something with a little bit of a heel, but not too high. I’m still pretty new to all of this and I really don’t feel the need to break an ankle.
The salesclerk asked my size, some questions about what kind of dancing I was doing and she headed to the half price rack. She found a pair of shoes in my size, I tried them on, and walked out of the store with a pair of shoes that I like.
I’m not sure if the dancing shoes will turn me into an overnight dance sensation. I’ve noticed that the more I go out and dance and practice the better I seem to get. I’m not Dancing with the Stars quality, or even close. I’m not sure I will ever be at that level. I just enjoy dancing, and having fun.
That’s really what matters most.
