I went to return a pair of hiphop shoes I bought from this store 3 weeks ago. Shoes have never been worn as theyre for a recital. The requirement for black hiphop shoes changed so we had to get a different pair elsewhere. I didnt have a receipt but I showed the salesperson my banks transaction showing the name of this dance store, date and amount $$$ I paid to them. No refund nor return was made because the stores system can only handle ones with receipt. Its 2021 but this place is stuck in the dark ages. Buyer beware.

The selection is quite good, and the staff is very helpful. My complaint is the changing room - 3 things... the area is dark. They could upgrade the lighting in each stall and at the changing room area. They should put mirrors in each stall. And the curtain should be easily fixed to actually close, for better privacy.

I love Ms. Dancewear. The owner is lovely, helpful, provides wonderful service. The young ladies that work there are usually dancers themselves and they are always helpful and courteous.

The staff is always wonderful and helpful. Always checking on you and helping where they can. The prices burn my pocket though. I wish they did more coupons for more than $5 off and had a rewards program.
