After purchasing the dance sneakers and wearing them to teach and conduct workshops in, they certainly took away from aches and pains in the legs and feet after long hours of teaching. — Joy Tolev- Canada I really like the new sneaker. They are a good fit, very flexible and quite attractive, — Betty Lawrence- Oklahoma City As an instructor, I feel like these are one of the best teaching tools to come out in a long time. When you teach 4 or 5 classes consecutively, it sure helps your feet and lower back. My dancers do so many parades and out door performances that the shoes expense doubles in the summer. We are going to use these for all of those performances done on concrete and asphalt to save our shoes and prevent injury during competition season. — Beth Ogilvy- Springfield, IL I LOVE my Leo dance sneakers. I have arthritis in both knees, so teaching for any length of time in Highland shoes has become a painful experience! In my dance sneakers I can demonstrate every movement and still have enough comfort and support to teach for hours at a time with little or no knee pain. — Holly Hodgkin- Fenton, MI The first time I wore my new dance sneakers from Highland X Press was at the Kansas City Highland Games. I immediately noticed the extreme flexibility of these shoes. I had them on from 7:00 am till after midnight and never got a blister or felt any discomfort! These are definitely the most comfortable pair of shoes I have ever worn and will be perfect for those long parades." — Shelley Bodamer- St. Andrews Celtic Dancers They're great for warm ups! I only wish we could compete wearing them! Your points look amazing in them! And they're great for dancers who dance in parades, so you don't ruin your ghillies! — Kammey McCann- Dancer-IL
