Can I use the ash soft-shoe dance floor for tap or hard shoe styles?

While these dance floors are perfect for soft-shoe styles, we don’t recommend our soft-shoe Ash floors be used for tap, hard-shoe Irish, or hard-shoe Highland dance. The Ash wood is amazing for soft-shoe styles and will last for decades, but the metal-soled dance shoes will take chunks out of the soft grain of the Ash panel. If you’re practicing tap or hard-shoe styles, we recommend one of our maple practice floors, which are specifically designed to withstand the impact of tap and hard-shoe dancing.

Where are soft-shoe dance floors manufactured?

Our Ash dance floors are proudly manufactured in the USA, specifically in Flint, Michigan. We prioritize quality and craftsmanship in every aspect of production, ensuring customers get the best dance floor possible for their practice and performance needs.

Are soft-shoe dance floors difficult to install?

These are specifically designed for a simple installation experience. You can hire a contractor to install your dance studio floor for you – but you don’t need to! Most dance studio owners choose to install their new wood dance floors themselves.

O’Mara Sprung Floors customers usually find that installing their dance floor is the simplest experience of building their studio. Our dance floors arrive complete with easy-to-read instructions, fully labeled panels and all specialty installation tools you will need. The only thing you need to provide is a #2 Phillips head driver bit to open the crate as well as a circular saw and drill to install the trim. Get details > 

How do I maintain my dance floor?

Cleaning and maintaining your portable wood dance is easy. Just wipe the surface with a damp cloth or microfiber mop using only water. For deep cleaning, use a diluted solution of AquaSport Wood Floor Cleaner or Squeaky Clean. Do not use any other cleaners as they will leave residue and make the floor more difficult to clean in the future. Regular cleaning and maintenance help preserve the appearance and performance of your fitness floor for years to come.
