CHOOSING HEELS:
• My best advice is to only train in heels and perform - wear cute sneakers out to dinner and to dance. Take baths and roll out our muscles!
• A chunky boot may feel easier but you will not build the strength and stability you need for heels. Starting with a smaller heel is totally fine!
• Platforms like pleasers are for a specific style, erotic dance and are challenging! They do not allow you to feel the floor and especially starting out you want no platform.

BEST BEST BEST IS:
• Bootie for ankle support
• Laces to adjust tightness
• Open toe so your toes can SPREAD and feel the floor versus being scrunched in
• Thin heel to build ankle strength
• a flare heel is great to start, 2-3 inches is fine
