After The Dance is a Texarkana dancewear shop focused on helping families keep children in dance by making essential apparel more attainable. The store carries dancewear for dancers of all ages, including leotards, shoes, accessories, and other necessities, with a mix of new and gently used items that helps manage the cost of growing dancers and changing class requirements. Founded in 2011 in a small space inside a resale boutique, the business expanded within the boutique in 2014, relocated in 2016 for greater accessibility and convenience, and completed a major remodel in 2024 that refreshed the store and broadened its inventory. Built by Angel and Beth on firsthand understanding of dance-related expenses, After The Dance remains rooted in a practical, welcoming mission: giving local dancers more options so they can stay focused on the art itself.
