OUR POLICIES
Please take a moment to read through our studio policies:

WHERE TO BUY DANCEWEAR
For your convenience, Centre Stage Dancewear is located just upstairs from the studio at 664 Prince St! Shop in-person or online at www.csdancewear.com
For dance shoe purchases, CSD strongly recommends bringing your child for a fitting as dance shoes are not able to be fitted the same as street shoes.
