Our Values

 

Believe in the basics

We wear dancewear all the time, and we never want you to stop loving what you’re always wearing. We design the staples, the basics, the timeless classics—the things you need and will always need to have in your wardrobe as a dancer. 

 

By dancers, for dancers.

Although now teaching full-time, Teacher Lina was once a professional dancer herself. She knows what it takes for a product to be well-designed enough to make her feel good and look good while dancing. 

Made to last.

Our dancewear has been in the industry for over 5 years, and people still wear some of our earliest pieces to this day. Each piece is made with the best quality so that it lasts you at least 10 years. 

 

Environmental sustainability.

We believe that environmental sustainability is the rule and not the exception. Leftover fabrics—rescued from large manufacturers who would have otherwise thrown them away—are refurbished into our limited edition dancewear, ready to be at home in the studio. 

Passion over perfection.

A dance is perfected only by the passion imbued in every step. In the same manner, rather being handled by machines, your dancewear is perfected by hand, thereby sewing a personal touch into each and every stitch.

 

Empower workers.

Our seamstresses are a group of single mothers living together in a small low-income village in Cainta, Philippines. On top of paying them fair wages and ensuring safe working conditions, we regularly conduct initiatives like financial literacy talks and activities.
