Gosh! :yikes: Every few months? That must cost a bomb! I just changed my DD's shoes by half a size bigger. Am I hoping too much for them to last half a year at least then?

ya , it was $25 till size 12. With the current ballet place, size 13 costs $45 so I was :faint: , I am hoping to change maybe after 4 months , it will depends on DD2 feet.

Ya different schools, different pricing and due to the different material also.

same, I am buying from the school unless I find an easier option for the shoes

same here i paid $32 for DD new ballet shoes 2 months back. i tot the lady charged me wrongly as the leotard only like 30 plus too… haizz…

Yup, when I signed DDs up for ballet, it was a package of shoes, leotard, stockings and tutu skirt at $125 i think.


DD1 isn’t continuing with ballet so I could re-use her leotard/shirt for DD2 phew

[Serendipity]

I recall I bought my DD’s first set of ballet attire at $80 and I thought that was ex! Looking back, it seemed like such a good deal. Now that I’ve changed schools for my DD, prices are higher. Ah well…

jo.ong:

Let her try tots ballet at cc first....

then anyone can recommend good shops to buy the costume?

[Serendipity]

I'm letting go of my DD's leotard (only worn once or twice cos bought wrong size and had to get another one) and skirt (still in good condition). If anyone's interested to buy, can contact me.

Let her go for trial lesson first and if she's keen, the teacher will arrange the costume and classical shoes.
