The dancers that work here are amazing. If you are a more beginning dancer, or need a lot of assistance, then I would recommend it. However, there are constantly about 5-6 employees in the store, and they are always trying to offer assistance, even when it is not needed. The owner, however is quite loud, always present, and continually talking loudly regarding politics and inaccurate dance information.\r

And...I understand that they need to make a profit, but things are ridiculously overpriced. Pointe shoes offered online are about twenty dollars cheaper per pair. Upside is, at the store you get to try them on, but if you already know what you wear, order them online.\r

Also, there's a Capezio store in SF, so they don't really offer Capezio products.
