Pointe Shoes on You Tube
We have found this video useful. Have a look, if you are considering buying pointe shoes for the first time. It is important for your pointe shoes to fit properly, as otherwise you might get injured or cause great damage to your feet.
Browse our shop for our range of pointe shoes - they come with free ribbons!

Woo hoo! So I figured out how to add new categories to help you better in selecting items you want to browse!!
First and foremost is our new Bargain Corner, where you can find some excellent items at reduced prices or special prices - we will keep this updated with any items that are either end-of-line or where we want to promote our good quality brands with you!

One other specifically refers to the uniforms for the YADA College of Jazz, which is the company that hosts our ballet shop in Malta. These are also great for dance if you are not part of the school - top quality products that are very comfortable to dance in!
The other two will guide you to our products from our favourite brands - Sansha and Roch Valley. We hope to be adding more in the future.
Keep visiting us for more great deals!

A lot of people ask us about ordering online from our shop. Of course, if you are not in Malta, you have little option unless you are planning to travel here any time soon. In this case, make sure you know exactly what you want and email us through our contact page if you have a query. You may also get an estimate on the cost of your order. When you have added an item to your cart, you will get the following image:

Estimate your shipping
Enter the details requested, and you will have an idea of what the item costs to post. Note however that our website aggregates the shipping in such a way that items are not charged individually, but as a bundle. This is because some items are lighter than others and it could be that some of the items you order will weigh so little that they do not make any difference to your postage amount.
If you are in Malta, you may have the dilemma of whether to order online or simply come to our shop. If you are not really, really sure of the size you need, you will need to be fitted, and therefore online ordering is not recommended. You would still have to come to our shop if the order you receive does not quite fit - the free delivery is for the items ordered, and not intended for exchanges, unless of course the mistake is ours. For example, if your child is growing fast, or starting a new class, you may be surprised at the size of the item she requires, as dancewear does not always run in parallel with streetwear!
If you are sure of what you need, e.g. you have always ordered the same pointe shoes, or are familiar with the sizing policy of our leotards, or simply want to order a gift, then go ahead and order online. We post free in Malta and Gozo.
We look forward to your shopping with us …

We have added some men’s shoes to our ballet shop!
The leather Mariano, Sansha’s leather ballroom shoes for men, provide elegance and yet ease of movement.
The canvas Rudik stage boots lace up all along the inner side of the leg, ensuring support. The canvas makes the shoe flexible.

Hello everyone, and we are now looking forward to seeing you or hearing from you all again!
The Ballet Shop reopens its doors for the new term as of early September at Palkett, The Yada Shop. This coincides with the registration dates of College of Jazz Dance in Malta.
Our online store has been and still is open throughout the summer, and we have added some new products, such as Sansha’s demi pointe shoes, also commonly referred to as soft point shoes or soft blocks.
Please remember that we do free deliveries to Malta (not Gozo, except if the item is small enough to post, so please check). We also deliver worldwide. The only condition is that we receive payment before we ship - in fact we use Paypal as our preferred method of payment as this does not require us to have your card details.
We look forward to welcoming you all to the new season!

Exams are approaching in some countries, and in others a number of shows are put up during spring! At The Ballet Shop, we want to be able to make life easier for you when you need more dancewear.
So, we have decided to put a sale on our pointe shoes, to encourage you to get that extra pair. Remember that it is better to have two pairs of pointe shoes, which you use on alternate days or occasions. This will give them time to dry out and, in the long run, prolong their life.
Remember that we also have pointe shoe stems for those who still have a hard shoe but have broken the backs of the pointe shoe. These are inserted between the layers that form the sole, to give strength to the shoe again, thereby prolonging the life of the shoe.
Our Sansha pointe shoes also make use of the ‘whisper box’, which is a special technology employed by Sansha to reduce the noise of the shoes when dancing.
Sansha also has the revolutionary external split-sole pointe shoes, which, because of the split sole, combine strength with an elegant pointe, emphasising the arch of your foot. Note that the stems are not fashioned for these shoes.
Offers while stocks last!

For the next one month, we have a promotion of 10% off selected items at The Ballet Shop.
Remember, we give discounts on multiple orders, and we also weigh your parcel before posting so that we can give you a rebate if we spend less than we have quoted! This will ensure you are charged what we actually pay for postage plus a nominal fee for packing.
Remember that you can get a quote for your shipping before you order, by viewing your cart. After you’ve selected the item, with all the options such as colour and size, you enter your country, province (if applicable) and postcode and you click the buttone ‘Get A Quote’. This will give you the standard shipping rate. When you click the Paypal button, you are not charged straight away - first we check our stocks and the shipping price and then we invoice and charge you, so that if we quoted more than is due by you, we will invoice you for less. If we quoted less, you get the benefit!
