Jinga Dance
From Capoeira through to Samba, when it comes to dance movement Brazil relies on the lightness and flexibility of Jingas which are tailor made for all kinds of dancing. What made them the first choice shoes with dancers in the UK are the comfort for wearing them to classes and the funky looks fit for wearing out on the dancefloor besides the unbelievable range of colours. This is what a fan has to say:
“As a teacher of Cuban style dance and Hellerwork practitioner, the new product I saw from Jinga is exciting and I am convinced that it certainly helps improve your dance.
These shoes offer an incredible suppleness for the arch of your foot.
Stretching your feet to a maximum is no more a big issue and you can go to your full extent like a balletdancer, and still be able to grip the floor just when you like. They are so funky that you can wear them to dance classes or gigs.Even though range of movements is my primary concern I would always look for the style element even for dance shoes. Cuban Salsa demands a high degree of fluidity with which you can release back your heel from the ball of your toe; it is essential for the connection from the heel to the pelvis to be silken soft.
They are a boon for Brazilian Samba dance as you can open and connect your feet with the sacroiliac. Shaking your bootie is a song in theses shoes
Unlike other dance shoes they give you a wide range of movement without restricting ankle joints and without rubbing the back of your Achilles tendon.
I don’t hesitate to recommend Jinga shoes for all indoor dance classes and workshops.”
