[quote=Anonymous]Are they leather or canvas slippers with a leather sole, or something else? If they are traditional ballet slippers with a leather sole, they should not slip in a well-kept studio. But if they do, try to rough up the sole with sandpaper or a rasp, and or spritz with water or dampen with a wet paper towel just before class. If there is a rosin box (usually used for pointe shoes), have her step in the rosin box while wearing the shoes. Hairspray is a bad idea--I have a feeling it might make them even more slippery. Also ask the teacher--this problem is unusual.[/quote]
