Your guide to choosing shoe sizes, heels and soles:

Sizes:

Choose the appropriate heel height:

• 3-4 cm: Only for Lowheels (these heels are recommended for people who cannot wear heels) or for certain dances such as: Lindy Hop, West Coast Swing, etc.)

• 5-6 cm: Recommended for beginners in Dance, as well as for those who rarely wear high heels. Recommended for people with back or foot problems.

• 7 cm: Recommended and ideal for all comfortable and experienced dancers. The 7 cm heels give a good arch , they form pretty feet and offer you a better posture in order to better follow the guidance of your partner.

• 9 cm: Recommended for experienced dancers with many years of experience! These are very high heels, they propel the dancer forward and make pointe shoes easier. It is also a height more suitable for Kizomba because it projects the body forward

• 10.5 cm: Recommend Only to Kizomba dancers because they are accompanied by a rigid platform at the front of the shoe to ensure good stability .
