            *Please note, Art of Dance, LLC proudly provides its dancers with a Harlequin Liberty Sprung Floor with a 
             Harlequin Cascade top layer
;
this is the best floor for providing shock absorption, reducing stress on dancers
              ankles, knees and back. Our Harlequin floor system sits on top of a plywood sub-floor which provides an
              additional level of shock absorption (many dance studios just have a Marley surface over a regular hard wood floor
              with a concrete or tile sub floor, leading to fatigue and strain on the dancers body). Go to www.harlequinfloors.com for full
              product description.
Thank you for not wearing dance shoes outside of the classroom, this helps maintain the integrity  
              of our specialized professional dance floor!
