Sonata Royal Academy of Dance Examination Waist Belt

Dancewear, tights and dance-shoe sizing varies by product, brand and intended fit. Product-specific size guides are the primary source for choosing a size.

Start with the product page

Select the exact product and open its Size Guide or Fit & Sizing information. Use the current guide for that product rather than assuming the same labelled size will fit across brands or styles.

How to measure

• Use a soft measuring tape over close-fitting clothing.
• Keep the tape level and comfortably close to the body without pulling it tight.
• Measure the bust or chest, natural waist, fullest hip and torso girth when the product guide asks for them.
• For height and weight ranges, use current measurements.
• For footwear, follow the product’s fitting instructions and measure both feet when requested.

Between sizes or unsure?

Follow the product-specific guide and consider the garment’s intended fit. Do not size up pointe shoes for growth. Contact our team before ordering if measurements span sizes or you need help interpreting a chart.

Sizing information is guidance, not a fit guarantee. Individual proportions, preferences, product materials and production changes can affect fit.
