What to expect when you visit a BLOCH store

The superior range of BLOCH dance apparel, footwear and accessories doesn’t just exist online, we also have a collection of stores dotted around the globe for you to discover too — so whether you reside in Paris, New York City or London, discover your spectacular store nearby.

While every emporium possesses its own unique offerings — including pointe shoe fittings, specialist product knowledge and dance expertise — the famous BLOCH experience can be enjoyed at whichever store you visit.

Location, location, location

Each of our stores is nestled beside all the action a city has to offer. Located in the cultural centre of the city, Manhattan’s flagship is only blocks away from Central Park and Columbus Circle, plus Lincoln Center, the home of world-renowned companies like The New York City Ballet and American Ballet Theatre.

Amsterdam's store is in Jordaan, a hip hub near the Central Station Dam and the historic Anne Frank House. BLOCH Paris resides in the chic 8th arrondissement neighbourhood, just a short stroll from the Jardins des Champs-Elysées. Elsewhere, our recently opened London store is located in the iconic dance region of Seven Dials, Covent Garden — just a stone's throw away from the Royal Ballet School and Oxford Street, Europe's busiest shopping street.
