This floor can be used barefoot or with dance shoes, ie ballet or jazz shoes. It can be used with street shoes, but shoes must be clean and free from grit before stepping onto the floor.

Props or furniture such as tables and chairs can be used on the floor. Ensure they are placed and carried on to the floor, and not dragged.

Only specialist dance floor tape can be used on this flooring – do not use gaffa or duct tape as this leaves a sticky residue that can damage the floors surface after it is removed.
