Capezio dancewear and dance shoes

Capezio dancewear and dance shoes: "- Sent using Google Toolbar"

Capezio is the family name of the founder of what is now a highly regarded manufacturer of dance shoes, dancewear and dance accessories. Established in the 19th Centuary Capezio was a cobbler in New York city and as a consequence of being just across the road from a major dance company did much of his work on dance shoes. Due to a curiosity and a large potential market Capezio experimented with making his own dance shoes, becoming very successful with his own pointe shoes. The transition from cobbler to shoe maker was complete and the Capezio brand of dance shoes took off big time.

Since those early days Capezio has remained a family business and now makes dance clothing and dance accessories as well as still making market leading dance shoes.

Capezio's present day strengths include its successful experimentation with modern fabrics, creating such popular lines as its 'layers' clothing, Capezio bags and holdalls, always a big favourite with dancers and after it's acquisition of Bunheads® a collection of dance aids & accessories to pamper every dancer.

How to place an order for BFPO delivery

How to place an order for BFPO delivery

Yesterday was the UK's second Armed Forces day and the country saw dozens of special events put on to celebrate the magnificent job that service men & women, past & present have done in protecting the UK & it's interests. James went to the Tank Fest event at the Bovington tank museum in the scorching sun and had a whale of a time.

Our troops can find themselves anywhere in the World at a moment’s notice, and as a consequence of the work they do have to remain highly mobile, rarely staying in one place for too long. This becomes a major problem when sending mail to them as you can never be too sure where to address it. Thankfully this is taken care of by the British Forces Post Office (BFPO), which has a long tradition of getting post to the addressee.

But a big problem with using the BFPO is that outside of the military’s extended family few people know how to use the BFPO. Worse still few businesses offer a delivery service via BFPO, which I believe should be part of the UK’s covenant with its Armed Forces.

In that respect Dancemania dancewear is doing its bit by offering a shipping method through the BFPO, and an explanation of how to place an order for BFPO delivery is given in Dancemania’s blog.

What to wear for Zumba fitness classes

What to wear for Zumba fitness classes

"What do I wear for Zumba?" is a question we at Dancemania are asked regularly every week and although the anwser is simple it gets a bit tiring having to repeat ourselves, so we've written a brief answer in our blog.

If you want to know what Zumba is or why Zumba is proving so popular or like some many other people you just want some advice on what to wear for your Zumba class then you need to read this blog.

Bloch Amalgam 507 Dance Sneaker - Dancemania Dancewear

Bloch Amalgam 507 Dance Sneaker - Dancemania Dancewear

Building on the strengths of the Slipstream Bloch have produced the Amalgam 570s cross-over dance shoe. Cross-over describes the role and function of the shoe as having attributes of both a jazz shoe and a dance sneaker - it fulfills both roles and is capable of providing the function of each.

There are many differences between the Bloch Slipstream and the new Alamgam, the biggest being that the Amalgam is a lace-up shoe instead of a velcro fastening shoe that the slipstream is.

Lightweight, unisex, supportive, flexible, breatable and available in 5 colour options the Bloach Amalgam is a great shoe and will be a massive success for years to come and ulitmately will be a classic.

Leo's Dancewear - Leotards and dance clothing

Leo's Dancewear - Leotards and dance clothing

Dancemania has such a large warehouse that it is sometimes possible to lose an entire truck load of dancewear, and that is exactly what happened sometime in the past because we have recently stumbled upon a massive stock of Leo's Dancewear leotards that have not yet been on the website.

Some are now discontinued and so their price have been lowered to reflect this, so are old designs but all are fabulous quality and not at all common in dance classes in the UK.

Firstly we have the Leo's Contrast Halterneck Leotard, which is available in eye catching black with pink piping or stylish cappuccino with pink piping. This leotard is fabulous to wear and is so unusual as to make the wearer stand out in a crowd.

Then we have Leo's navy tank leotard at £15, so cheap you've got to want to snap up a couple before they all go. Find this leotard and many other give-a-ways in our Sale.

For those ballerinas that like to accessorise we have Leo's Pop Art Ballerina T-shirt in cool cotton with a hot motif.

A bit weird this but we have a pile of Leo's Halterneck Leotards but all in Large Adult size. Never mind, they are quality leotards in a fabulous design.

Neon Clothing & Dancewear

The latest craze crossing the UK among party goers is the Neon Party, where the dress code is strictly anything neon! In fact, the more outrageous the neon clothing the better and the clothing is nothing without the accessories so it is important to cram into as much neon as your legs can carry.

At Dancemania we have a large selection of neon clothing and accessories and to help you find them we have put together a web page with a sample selection for you to click on and explore.

If you don't feel comfortable wearing the full neon outfit then as an absolute minimum you must wear neon legwarmers, or neon ankle warmers and neon wrist warmers, they are a no-option must have.

If you feel a little more adventurous then wear some black sneakers and add some neon shoe laces to produce a fabulous contrast, or if you are not so in to the dark side then how about the fabulously colourful Street Dance sneaker from pineapple.






Hardcore neonists will be choosing their neon leotard to match their neon tutu, and will certainly be wear contrasting neon fishnet tights! But the beauty of a neon party is that you wear as little or as much as you want, and you'll be safe in the knowledge that walking along a road at night you have a much better chance of being seen by car drivers than if you were not wearing neon.


But a word to the wise, like all creatures of the night neon clothing does not like direct sunlight, and prolonged exposure will fade it's colours. Care must also be taken in washing these garments, and a cool handwash will ensure the garment will see many neon nights.



See you later,

Dancemaniac

Bloch Axis TMT S0190L Pointe Shoe

Hi

 

Great news! Bloch Axis TMT S0190L Pointe Shoes are now available next day delivery from Dancemania Dancewear

 

Bloch Axis TMT S0190L Pointe Shoes incorporate TMT, which is the latest innovation in Pointe Shoes. Essentially TMT is a heat activated paste that enables a dancer to drastically accelerate the breaking in process by moulding the Axis to the unique contours of her feet from the very first wear. These shoes have a plastic insole which helps the shoe last much longer than traditional pointe shoes.

 

To summarise you should by these pointe shoes because:

1. They are quick to break in
2. They mould quickly to the feet
3. They look delicate, light and beautiful en pointe
4. They are a quiet shoe
5. They resist bagginess and creases
6. Their curved last ensures good contact with the foot
7. They have an improved foot articulation
8. They last longer than traditional shoes

Dancemania trials all its products and these shoes were such a hit that our sample group have now switched to these shows.

Tutus like no other tutu

 

There is little doubt that Dancemania Dancewear sells some of the best tutus around, and anyone would look great in any of them, see for yourself:

http://www.dancemania.biz/Tutus-p-1-c-286.html

 

But you must ask yourself “why have the same tutu that others have?”. Well, at Dancemania you don’t have to be the same as everyone else, you can be unique wearing your own creation; why not design your own tutu?

 

Start off with a simple 2 layer tutu - http://www.dancemania.biz/Design-Your-Own-2-layer-Tutu-p-7382.html

Choose from 19 waistband/trim colours and 11 mesh colours – and the two layers can be different colours. With a choice of 9 child and adult sizes you have 2299 different colour combinations.

 

If you want a fuller tutu, or the chances of bumping into another person wearing the same 2 layer tutu are too high then you will need the design your own 4 layer tutu - http://www.dancemania.biz/Design-Your-Own-4-layer-Tutu-p-7737.html

You have the same choice of colours as with the 2 layer but with 4 layers of mesh to play with (over a quarter of a million combinations)

 

These tutus are ideal for shows, parties and Halloween.

 

Have fun,

 

Dancemaniac

Make your mark with Milano's summer 2009 range at Dancemania Dancewear

 

The latest Milano gymnastics range of leotards, shorts, vests and pants for women, men and children has arrived at Dancemania Dancewear (http://www.dancemania.biz/The-Latest-Milano-Gymnastics-Clothing-p-1-c-356.html). The full "make your mark" summer 2009 range is available on-line at www.Dancemania.biz.

 

Along with a brand new logo, that will now be appearing on their clothing in place of the old snake logo, Milano has produced another bright range gymnastics clothing with the emphasis on fun in the gym. As well as the standard kit that coaches like there is also designs that will appeal to children and those of you that don't like to conform - you rebel you!

 

Men will find that colours and designs for their leotards and shorts (http://www.dancemania.biz/Mens-Gymnastics-p-1-c-300.html) are not so conservative, allowing men at last to be expressive with their outfits and not just their routine.

 

This range is available until the end of July 2009. The Milano spring 2008 range is available until end of August 2008.

 

Stick it!

New large warehouse and distribution centre

Hello again.

 

Life at Dancemania is never dull, but it is always busy. In fact the reason I get to write to you so infrequently is because there is always something exciting that needs to be done right now. lately I've been involved with planning for our new facility - it's a warehouse and distribution centre combined in a wonderfully large unit not far from our Poole showroom.

 

This new warehouse will simply swallow up 100's of 1000's of dancewear and gymnastics products which means things being out of stock on our web site will be a thing of the past. Also, we are installing a set up which will allow a dedicated team of pickers and buyers to service your order and send it out in record time.

 

We have now set up a business development team that will take enquiries from resellers, clubs, schools, colleges, theatres....anyone in fact who wishes to by in bulk. To help them with their dancewear and gymnastic clothing needs we have set up a new web site www.dancewear-wholesale.co.uk. In time resellers with an account will be able to buy on-line in bulk from this web site, but in the meantime they need to use the information on the contact details page at http://www.dancewear-wholesale.co.uk/contact.html

 

 

By the by, just to let you know that we will be revamping www.Dancemania.biz in the near future to help you find things easier and also to provide you with more up front information about the products you are looking at. By September we hope to have significantly increased the number of products on-line....I guess I won't be having a summer holiday after all.

 

Catch you later dudes!

Ballet Pointe Shoes

Hello again!

 

We at Dancemania have always had the view that our web site at www.dancemania.biz should have the widest choice of dancewear available for you to buy on-line. This we will always strive to do even though it is a constant, never ending job because as we finish adding one set of new clothing or shoes we discover another exciting range that we just have to let you know about.

 

Anyway, along with this we still need to add dance essentials and on this point (ha ha...you'll get it) we have just added a small range of Pointe shoes (do you see what I did there?). Along with gels, toe pads, seude toe caps, rosing, darning needles, darning yarns and stacks of other pointe shoe neccessities we have addded pointe shoes from Gamba, Bloch and Capulet that will suit beginners and Prima Ballerinas alike and you can buy them now at http://www.dancemania.biz/Pointe-Shoes-p-1-c-337.html

 

I'm off to add more stuff to the site, but in the meantime, with Christmas coming up don't forget to take a look at our gifts for ballet dancers here: http://www.dancemania.biz/Ballet-Gifts-p-1-c-349.html oh and you can now make a wish list to send to family and friends so that they know exactly what you would like for Christmas this year. Learn about that here: http://www.dancemania.biz/What-is-a-wish-list-sp-21.html

 

Keeeeeeeeeep dancing!

15% off new Milano "Going for Gold" gymnastics leotards

Hi again,

 

Sorry for the long gaps between postings but we are all busy building our new super-dooper web site, which should be coming on-line next month...we're all very excited.

 

Anyhow, I thought it important to let you all know that the 2008 gymnastic range of leotards, shorts, vest and pants have arrived from Milano. They call their 2008 range "Going for Gold", clearly with their eyes firmly on the Olympic championships next year.

 

We have added the complete range to our web site and you can see it by clicking here http://www.dancemania.biz/dancewear/x6448.html

 

...but not only do you get the entire range hot from the factory but we are giving you a 15% discount on the R.R.P. for all leotards, men's and women's.

 

You'd better order yours soon because the offer is limited and may not last long, so pass the word around and make a lot of people very happy.

 

Now, back to building the new web site!

 

Kind regards,

Dancemaniac

Motionwear Dancewear

Hiya,

 

Well, Dancemania is now an authorised supplier of Motionwear and we've started putting a few items on our web site at http://www.dancemania.biz/dancewear/x7138.html so please come and have a look. We will endeavour to place much more on-line over the next few weeks but I must tell you that we are putting a lot of effort in to building our super-duper, brand spanking new web site that will have more features than you can shake a stick at. Our new site will go on-line in August, but I'm afraid until then our current web site may feel a little neglected, i.e. few new things will be added.

 

Any how, in the meantime please go on-line and take a look at the fabulous Motionwear dance tops that have been added to www.dancemania.biz

 

Keep on dancing!

New Gymnastic and Aerobic clothing from A Star Leotards being added

Happy New Year to you!

 

Whilst not much has happened on www.dancemania.biz since before Christmas we have been very busy in store with the Christmas and New Year rush. Also, we've been negotiating with new suppliers so watch this space for some very exciting additions to the lines we carry.

 

The first minor addition to our site is the latest outfits from A Star Leotards, which I must confess should have been added before Christmas but to be honest I was being worked far too hard and only now do I have the chance to add these very well designed, competitively priced outfits to our site.

 

You will find long sleeved A Star Leotards at www.dancemania.biz/dancewear/x4655.html, sleeveless A Star Leotards at www.dancemania.biz/dancewear/x4668.html and crop tops, leggings, Capri pants, boot leg trousers and shorts at www.dancemania.biz/dancewear/x4860.html

 

We will be exhibiting at MoveIt! in London at the Olympia exhibition centre in March this year so we're all going to be very busy for that and we hope you will make time to come and visit us at stand 440. More info to follow over the next few weeks.

 

 

Until then,

 

Look your best, perform your best.
