Women's Practice Dance Shoes — Split Sole & Low Heel

Practice and teaching shoes for women, built for hours in the studio. Most pairs here are split-sole — the forefoot and heel flex independently, so the shoe moves with your foot through rises, turns and drills. Low heels, breathable materials and flexible suede soles, from AIDA, BD Dance, International Dance Shoes and Candy. Try a pair on by appointment in Ottawa or Montréal, or order online.

Why choose a practice shoe

A practice shoe has a lower, stable heel, a cushioned, comfortable fit and a durable build for hours on the floor — ideal for lessons, teaching, rehearsals and beginners. Learn when to choose one in our practice shoes guide.

Fit and sizing

Practice shoes still fit closer than street shoes — check our fit & sizing guide, browse wide-fit options if you need room, or book a fitting in Ottawa or Montréal.
