Dancia International
Reading, Berkshire
Dancia Reading is a spacious, double-fronted shop stocking everything for the dancer and gymnast, including regulation wear, shoes, leotards, tights, bags and hair accessories.
For customers who require pointe shoes, we have a qualified fitter available at all times. We stock Bloch and Grishko, and Dancia is the sole UK distributor for Gaynor Minden. As such, our fitter is also fully qualified to fit these revolutionary shoes.
Gymnastics enthusiasts can choose from a fantastic range of leotards, and can even order their own bespoke designs.
We have an excellent range of ballroom and Latin shoes from manufacturers such as Freed, International, Dansport and Equity.
For Irish dancers, we have soft Irish ghillies and poodle socks.
Our "big pink shop" is situated in the heart of Caversham, with an excellent array of shops, cafes and restaurants to enjoy. Ample parking is available behind Waitrose. There is also a car park in Chester Street, which is free after 3pm on weekdays and Saturdays. At other times, it is just 20p for 2 hours!
