Custom-Built Seven-Layer Sprung Floor

One of BalletCorps’ highest priorities is providing a safe and supportive training environment for every dancer.

At the heart of our studio is a custom-built, seven-layer basket-weave sprung floor, designed to absorb impact and protect dancers’ joints. This specialized floor allows students to train with confidence while reducing the risk of injury and supporting long-term physical health.

In fact, this floor was designed and constructed single-handedly by BalletCorps director Daniel Blake, representing more than 150 hours of careful planning, engineering, and installation. This effort reflects BalletCorps’ unwavering commitment to providing dancers with a training environment where their health, safety, and long-term development are the highest priorities.

Floor Specifications

• 2,700 square feet (approximately 60' × 50')
• Fully covered with brand-new Harlequin “Studio B” Marley, designed specifically for classical ballet, contemporary, and modern dance
• Seven layers of sprung support, including sound-dampening insulation
• Constructed using over 6,000 pounds of materials
• Over 5,000 precision-drilled screws used in construction

This floor was built with one goal in mind: to provide dancers with a professional training surface that supports both safety and performance.
