Stagestep™ has several floating wood subfloor options that you can install underneath the main dance floor to protect dancers’ bodies and movements from energy. The SpringStep™ III subfloor is part of our SpringStep collection. It’s ideal for use in many commercial dance studios or theaters.
What Is SpringStep III?
SpringStep III is a floating wood subfloor primarily designed for ballroom dance. This subfloor greatly diminishes sound because of the sheet foam on the subfloor quieting every step. SpringStep III cost-effective and eco-friendly.
Out of the five options in our SpringStep collection, SpringStep III has the most absorbency and least resiliency. It is our ballroom alternative floor because its qualities are well-suited to that dance style, but can also fit many other dance styles as well.
