The ballet stars will sign autographs for you at Dancia’s flagship Covent Garden shop from 3.30pm.
Klimentová has worn Grishko pointe shoes for fifteen years;
“They are made especially for my feet, so I don’t have to do much, except sew the ribbons, the edges of the actual pointe shoe, and later on I use shellac to make them even harder- but they last forever.”(excerpt from interview with Daria Klimentová by kind permission of Elise @ The Royal Ballet)Dancia London, which is the capital’s premier Grishko pointe shoe stockist, is offering 15% off Grishko products all day and customers spending £50 or more will also get an exclusive free gift.

I've loved Ballet since I was a little girl and wore my very first Tutu. Although it proved not to be for me I've long carried a deep loved for the Art.
You've captured the passion my friend. Thank you so much for sharing!

Thank you for stopping over. I love to hear when someone enjoys my posts, but to be complimented on my writing by a journalist of all people. This is quite special. I really like your blog as well. I come from a family of ballroom dancing, music, art, and antiques so reading a ballet blog is kind of comforting. Can't say I've even stumbled across one of these yet. Look fwd to your future posts. :)
