How To Choose A Child Ballet USA Leotards

By Sarah Roberts


When we talk of a ballet bodysuit is simply a piece of dancewear designed specifically for dance. Its skin tight covers the torso leaving the legs and usually the arms free, and its main purpose is to allow for complete freedom of movement. The following article will help us understand more on a beginner guide to ballet USA leotards.

The ballet history is fairly short in comparison to that of ballet dancing itself which can be traced back as far as the 15th Century. The bodysuit, however, was developed as recently as the 1800s by fabulous French acrobatic performer Jules who developed the garment especially for performing acrobatics. He used to name the garment his "maillot, " which is a French word used to refer to different types of tight-fitting shorts. It wasn't until after he died that his name became synonymous with the piece of dancewear.

Before you set out to purchase a ballet leotard, talk to your child's dance teacher to find out whether the school follows a syllabus from an examining body such as the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) or Imperial Society of Teachers for Dancing (ISTD). If this is the case, then what child wears will be dictated by whichever examining body they're studying under.

Most leotards are made from either Nylon Lycra or Cotton Lycra. Both of these fabrics possess similar formfitting qualities, as well as thermal and breathable qualities too. Together, these enable the dancer's body to warm without the need for additional heavy clothing which may restrict their movement.

If one looks from a gymnast's perspective, it is not just about the cloth but also the fitting the attire that matters and accentuates the final performance. The fabric chosen should be smooth and comfortable. Scratchy attire can hinder the body movements and can also create scratch marks on the body. The attire chosen should have the capacity to absorb sweat and perspiration.

If you check out your local telephone directory, you will almost certainly find a good specialist dancewear shop in your local area. Occasionally, you may find a few non-specialists dancewear shops such as supermarkets stock ballet leotards but it's always better to go to a dance shop. Even though they may be a little more expensive, they'll be able to provide you with the specialist advice and information you need.

If you're particularly price dependent, then you will find a myriad of dancewear retailers online. Most of these offer leotards at very competitive prices and quick delivery too. Just remember to make sure they have a simple returns policy in case you need to try a couple of different sizes.

A bodysuit that is well-designed, durable and made from quality fabrics would ensure that the gymnast stands out of the crowd during his performance.
