Womens dance shorts for class, studio and training

Womens dance shorts need to work across a wider range of contexts than girls styles, class, teaching, rehearsal, performance warm-up and sometimes all four in the same day. The right fit and length depends on what the movement demands and what the studio expects. Dance Direct stocks a specialist range of womens dance shorts from Energetiks, Studio 7 Dancewear and Capezio.

Jazz shorts, bike shorts and fitted dance shorts

Jazz shorts have a wider leg and a relaxed fit that suits jazz technique and gives a clean line through the hip for performance. Bike shorts are form-fitting at mid-thigh, popular for contemporary, hip hop and studio training where coverage and compression are both required. Fitted dance shorts and booty shorts are the most compact option, commonly worn over tights or under skirts and dresses as base layer coverage. All styles are available in a range of colours across the full womens range.

Comfort, coverage and freedom of movement

Womens dance shorts need to stay in place through a full class of kicks, extensions and floor work without rolling at the waist or cutting at the leg. Dance Direct selects for waistband construction and fabric recovery that holds the fit through hours of training, not just a warm-up. For sizing across all brands, refer to our clothing size guides.
