CenterStage offers Nimbly - our online boutique to save parents a trip to Nashville! Items can be ordered at anytime, and ship every Tuesday to your home! If you order the wrong size or item, dance wear can also be returned or exchanged!
We suggest you set up a time with our front desk staff to be sized! All dance wear sizing runs different, and is not the same size as a regular dance shoe. Please email info@performcenterstage.com to set up a time!
