I love this place...

Everyone is so friendly and helpful. They wouldn't sell the wrong shoe just to make the sale and are very protective of my daughter's feet. A mom can feel confident that the sales force has a deep knowledge of dance. I can even get some casual shopping in for myself! I wish they weren?t so far away from us, but worth the drive.

Great service and great quality

by Amarinaballerina at Citysearch

I have been shopping at Karabel Dancewear for many years now and have found everything I have needed and more. The leotards are always new and stylish and the quality lasts me throughout many long and strenuous classes and rehearsals. The staff is always very friendly and all know me by name. It's a great atmosphere to come into and the minute a customer steps in the door, one or more staff members are eager to help them find what they need. Karabel is very conveniently located on Magnolia Blvd in Burbank and every time I go in they are stocked full of many new and unique leotards that you can rarely find anywhere else.

I always recommend Karabel Dancewear to every dancer whether they are young, old and ballet dancers to hip hop dancers not only for the great quality and abundance of dance necessities but also for the wonderful service and helpful staff.

Karabel's - the Best dancewear, the right shoe, the right fit and the right service!

This is my first review on City Search and I'm glad to be submitting it regardng Karabel's Dancewear in Burbank. I have been taking my there daughter since she began dance training several years ago and have found one uncompromisinig component there. Care for the client. I don't mean just good service, I can find that anywhere. I'm talking about the well being of the client. Lori, the proprietor, is a former dancer herself and her experience has been invaluable to the patron's there in ways they may not expect. When my daughter was prepared to go on point noone said here you go, threw her a pair of shoes, took our money and showed us the door. Lori, took the time and patience to examine her technique, review her dance experience and generally determine whether or not it was too premature to go on point. It's not just about finding the right fit. Too often overzealous students and uninitiated parents will advance them too quicky and unknowingly promote injury and damage to the dancer. One of the first questions one is asked is "Who is your teacher?" Lori is well versed with local dance teachers and has a radar on experience and ability. She tries to find you the right shoe that is comensurate with your level, not just any shoe. You want great service, the right shoe and a perfect fit, you can't do better than Karabel's!!!!
