Flooring and Footwear

The ROWI Hall has 2000 square feet of red oak hardwood flooring. With the natural give of the floor it is the perfect surface for dancing and exercise classes.
  • To protect this floor we ask that people, if possible, change into indoor shoes before entering the main Hall area. If this is not possible then shoe treads must be checked for rocks and to ensure they are clean. 
  • Stilettos, high heels or tap shoes are strictly forbidden as they damage the finish and underlying wood.
