The right shoes are a game changer for your dance, but finding them can be too much trial and error!

Such a great video! Thanks, Katie! I’m wondering - I’m sure it’s a very personal choice, but are there particular brands you’d recommend for a follower who’s just starting?

@@sosadetz Thank you! There are a lot of nice brands out there! And you are right it can be a lot of personal preference. Right now my favorites are my Reginas...but my friend picked them up in Italy for me. It can depend a lot on what you can find in your area. The shoe brands featured in this video are in the description now :)

Personally I find lower heels - i.e. 6 cm - much sexier and they make your legs look more beautiful and round. It's wrong to think that your legs look prettier with very high heels.

Yes! Certainly a mistake to think that higher is always better.

As an absolute beginner, I've taken a pair of my most comfortable shoes (with a low block heel) and glued some leather soles on them. I had a hard time finding dance shoes that are my style and comfortable. The diy method is quiet easy. Use barge glue.

Could you please share in which heel heights are your shoes? Tnx

Very helpful video! Would you share the sizes of the shoes you own? That would be very helpful when comparing brand sizes for online orders! ( No tango shoes shops in this country unfortunately)

Hi there I`m a bit late to this thread but do you get your tango shoe heels replaced in an ordinary shoe repair shop like Timsons? Thanks

Great video! I also wish there was more information when I first started dancing. All my teacher told me that as a beginner I must buy closed heel shoes because they are more stable. Another teacher told me that heels higher than 7cm are not a requirement. While others told me to get the highest heel. Tried that and could not walk in them. My sweet spot for heels is 8.5cm. At what point do you throw away your shoes?

Great video! What do you thing about dancing sneakers for beginners? I am afraid that front part of the sole is not so smooth which makes turns difficult…

@Frunze42 6 ай бұрын

dance sneakers are clunky. The lack of a heel won't help you learning proper balance and posture. There are low heel dance shoes, also known as practice shoes. I like using them for practice.
