Our collection includes camisole or tank-strap leotards, short-sleeved or long-sleeved options, as well as models with an integrated skirt (tutu). To complete your outfit, pair your leotard with pink or white ballet tights, soft pointe shoes, and a small sports bag for easy transport of your belongings!

At Decathlon we make sure to cover every age and body type, offering ballet leotards & dancewear ranging from children's sizes for young dancers aged 4 to women's sizes (XS to XL). To find the perfectly fitted size, consult the size guide on each product page by measuring height as well as chest/hip circumference. Complete your look by adding a wrap-over cardigan that keeps muscles warm before class, as well as a hair tie/bun net for an impeccable appearance at the dance academy!

For the first steps in classical dance, basic equipment includes a comfortable leotard (often in pink, white, or black depending on the academy's dress code), elastic ballet tights with or without feet, and soft ballet shoes. If classes take place during the winter months, a lightweight wrap cardigan and dance leg warmers are also essential. Find all the essential ballet leotards & dancewear for your child's start and pair them with a water bottle for necessary hydration during breaks and a microfiber towel that takes up minimal space!

The most comfortable material depends on preferences and training intensity! Cotton with added elastane is extremely soft, skin-friendly, and ideal for young children or light workouts, as it offers a natural feel and warmth. Meanwhile, the addition of elastane provides the necessary elasticity so the fabric hugs the body and follows every movement without restricting the dancer. On the other hand, synthetic materials (polyester/polyamide) offer superior breathability, wick away sweat quickly, and dry instantly, making them perfect for more intensive training sessions and advanced levels.

To maintain the shape and elasticity of ballet leotards & dancewear over time, the washing method is key. Always machine wash at a low temperature (up to 30°C) on a delicate cycle or, even better, hand wash in cold water with a mild liquid detergent. Strictly avoid fabric softeners, as their ingredients settle on elastane fibers and degrade them, causing the fabric to loosen. Finally, never use a tumble dryer and do not wring them out hard by hand; line dry clothes flat in a shaded area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, to dry naturally.
