starting a dance studio

[sarita]

I am thinking of beginning a dance studio but im clueless as to how much the things I need for it cost or where I can get them. I'm looking for mirrors that go at least 6 feet tall on the wall and to cover almost an entire wall. I am also looking for leotards, tights, tutus, and dance shoes. Help please!!!

I will ask my wife for you. She used to dance with the National Ballet in Peru.

You could try contacting a few shopfitting company's and ask them for quotes, or try and find out where they get there supplies from, if you can deal direct with a factory you may get a nice discount.
Small buissness advisors should be able to help too, you may be eligable for some sort of grant for equipment. if all else fails try looking through classified adverts for buissness for sale and ask if they have anything you may be able to buy cheaply from them.

Hope some of this helps.

Goo luck.

For the clothing you can find a couple of stores in Polvos Rosados. They sell fitness clothes and leotards and ballet shoes for children and possibly for adults as well. Near Barranco across from the Reyes Rojos elementary school on the corner there is a place that sells any size mirror. You just tell them what size you need. My girlfriend can ask as she is in various classes and is in contact with people who know these things. Good luck. In what district of Lima do you plan to purchase? Do you live in Miraflores?

There are several glass/mirror companies in San Borja on cuadras 38-39-40 of San Luis, just off Angamos.

I got a 6 foot by 3 foot mirror there for under 100 Soles, framed, in thick plate. I could have spent less for thinner glass, but wanted soemthing more sturdy.

They custom cut and frame.

Sarita,

I have contracted the services of Vidreria Santa Lucia, located in Surquillo, more times than I can count. Not the cheapest.. but reliable. 447-2200. Speak with Gloria.

We use Myasato, they are one of the most famous in Lima, and we asked offers from several companies for shower windows, and they came up cheapest. Also we use a company in Av Mexico, some 3 blocks of the Via Expresa on the right hand side. It is a wholesale company who has a whole almacen full with glass and mirrors and aluminium. Ask prices in several companies. In Av. Mexico there are several.
