Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I personally find that when i dance hip hop with just regular sneakers i feel more grounded and my foot work goes a lot faster!. With jazz sneakers they make my feet look better but i never feel like im hitting my foot work hard enough!. Tennis shoes that work really well for me are pumas because they have a more flexible sole!. But it really all depends on the look you want or what a choreographer wants!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Personally, I find it easier with the jazz trainers!.
I feel like i can move ALOT eaiser!.
If you know someone with the same size jazz shoes as you, ask them if you can try them on and try a few moves!.
If you find it easier with the jazz shoes then buy them, if not, stick with your trainers :)
everyones preferences are different :)
good luck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Split-sole, i find to be slippery on dance-wood floors; esp!. the Bloch or Capezio brands!.

I wear Nike Dunk's cause theyre very lightweight, or Adidas, or (my favourite) Brian Friedman's Frontline Dance Boots- theyre like boxing boots but they have a split sole and theyre very cool!Www@QuestionHome@Com

It really doesn't matter!. Aslong as you can move in them, and they are not tight!. And, make sure they aren't slippery!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
