(SAVE Mom’s Floors at home!) Great for ALL AGES and ALL LEVELS. Easy to travel with to Dance Competitions so you can warm up SAFELY before hitting the stage. Ideal for studios, performing arts centers, and school programs, looking to start Distance Dancing inside or outside, and enforce Social Distancing.
