FAQ about Women's Dance Shoes

When buying dance shoes, a good fit is essential – the shoe should fit snugly without pinching to provide optimal support and control. High-quality materials like nappa leather or suede are ideal because they are breathable and adapt to the shape of the foot over time. Heel height is also important: beginners should opt for lower heels for greater stability, while more advanced dancers may choose higher heels depending on their experience. A suitable sole, ideally made of suede leather, is also key as it allows controlled gliding and turning on the dance floor. Finally, look for good workmanship and cushioning to ensure comfort and durability.
Good dance shoes are characterized by a perfect fit. They must support the foot without pinching. They feature a flexible suede sole that allows natural movement while providing grip. The shoe should be made of breathable materials such as nappa leather or suede to ensure comfort during longer dance sessions. The heel should provide stability and control, while the sole should offer enough glide to allow for turns and quick movements.
The appropriate heel height for your dance shoes depends on several factors, such as your experience level, dance style, and personal comfort. For beginners or longer training sessions, lower heels between 1.5 and 5.5 cm are recommended, as they offer a wider base and place less strain on the feet. Advanced dancers often choose heels between 6 and 7.5 cm, as they support a more elegant posture. For show dance or experienced dancers, heels over 8 cm are also possible but require good technique and body control.
For beginner dancers, a heel height of 3.5 to 5 cm is ideal. This height offers a good balance between elegance and stability without putting too much strain on the feet or joints. Especially during the first dance lessons, a wide or slightly flared heel (e.g. flared heel) is helpful for maintaining balance more easily. Depending on the dance style (e.g. Standard, Salsa, Bachata), the preferred heel shape may vary slightly, but low to mid-height heels remain the safest choice for beginners.
We offer our women's dance shoes in various widths – from narrow to extra wide. For wider feet, we recommend our Comfort models. These have a slightly wider fit and provide plenty of space and comfort for broader feet. At the same time, you'll find models with a narrower cut in our dance shoes for narrow feet category. Additionally, you can adjust the fit individually – thanks to adjustable straps that ensure optimal support.
Even though dance shoes are very comfortable, it's worth briefly breaking them in or wearing them for a short dance session – even with high-quality models. Premium materials such as nappa leather, suede, or satin do adapt quickly to the foot, but a short break-in period helps ensure optimal comfort and a perfect fit.

For successful and enjoyable dance training, comfortable and flexible shoes are essential. Our training shoes from Werner Kern offer exactly that: they are super soft, extremely comfortable, and impress with their high flexibility.

Whether you prefer split-sole shoes for even more mobility or models with a full sole – we have the right training shoes for you. Especially popular for training are the following models:

These dance shoes combine elegance with functionality and optimally support your feet with every movement.

If you prefer a sportier style during training, our sneakers are the right choice. The Suny Sneaker with a split sole and breathable mesh upper adapts perfectly to your feet and ensures maximum comfort – ideal for long training sessions or workshops.

With our Werner Kern training shoes and sneakers, you are perfectly equipped – comfortable, flexible, and stylish at the same time.
