The faces behind Dancewear Stafford
​
Kaz
Founder | Professional Pointe Shoe Fitter
Dance has always been at the heart of my life. As the founder of Dancewear Stafford,
I am proud to run our family business alongside my daughter, Olivia, with one simple aim:Â
to give every dancer the personal service, expertise and confidence they deserve.
With a passion for dance and a commitment to exceptional fitting, we take the time to
understand every dancer as an individual.
Because when it comes to pointe shoes, one size never fits all.
Olivia
Pointe Shoe Fitter | Dancer
As a dancer myself, I know first-hand that the right pointe shoe
is about far more than how it looks. It is about fit, comfort, confidence and performance.
My experience as a dancer, combined with my professional pointe shoe fitting training,
allows me to understand the needs of dancers from a personal perspective. I am
passionate about creating a fitting experience where every dancer feels listened
to, understood and confident in their shoes.
Â
Our passion is dance. Our expertise is fitting. Our priority is you.
