Dance, Dance, Dance...Until You Can't Anymore

 Pointe Shoes

 

 

I started dancing when I was four years old-and didn't stop until I ended up in the hospital. At the time I started dance classes, I was also in figure skating and gymnastics, as well as on a local swim team.  Eventually I chose dance over the other activities, and started to compete seriously.  By the time I was eleven years old, I was on the top competitive team at my studio, practicing around twenty hours a week.  I was taking tap, ballet, technique, pointe, jazz, modern, lyrical, and hip hop classes. I started pointe before my body had fully formed, and as a consequence my lower body joints became severely damaged over time.  I was already at a higher risk for injury, since I have arthritis in my lower limbs.  The constant strain of dancing for years eventually took its toll. Read more...

Who is Bettysport?

Bettysport opened its doors in October of 2004 with the vision to offer women the highest of quality in fitness apparel, footwear and accessories. We found that to be the best quality doesn't always equate to the highest price. You don't need to spend a fortune to find workout apparel that will last through countless sweat sessions, but you do need to know what to look for. And that's where Bettysport comes in....

 

We do the research and wear testing to make sure the styles in our stores meet this expectation. Everything we carry will last through your toughest workouts and give you the look you can wear with confidence from the gym to the coffee shop.

 

Fit Happens.  Look Good Doing It.  Bettysport
Sincerely,
 

The Yoga Team
