Dance at an Optimal Level

These Rosco Adagio flooring rolls are made of quality vinyl. The surface is non-absorbent, non-reflective, and non-skid. It gives ballet dancers the controlled slip needed to perform at an optimal level, and is ideal for rehearsals and stage performances.

After the first use, you may observe visible markings, but there's no need to worry. This is a normal occurrence and indicates the marley floor is functioning as intended. The scuffs are a natural result of the friction between the shoe and the surface's grip, which is more apparent when the dance floor is new and shiny. With continued use, these scuffs will start to blend into a patina on top, just as they do inside dance studios everywhere.

Portable Marley Dance Floor

The 5.25 by 6 foot size is a nice size for a portable marley dance floor. You can also fasten it with tape or glue, though adhesive or tape is not required. When you are installing the Rosco Adagio, make sure the shiny side of the vinyl marley floor goes down.

For temporary installations, the flooring can be rolled up and stored as needed. You can also install the flooring permanently with adhesive. If installing the marley floor on concrete, it is best to pair it with a dance subfloor and underlayment.

Storage of Marley Flooring

Rolls of marley dance floor should never be stored in a flat position, as this will cause the rolls to flatten and can cause rippling in the material when unrolled. The dance studio flooring should always be stored in an upright position. Roll the material up tight on a core and tape it closed. Stand it on end for storage.

Disclaimer:
Tap shoes with aluminum taps leave behind dark oxidation marks on marley vinyl flooring. These marks blend in fairly well on dark-colored flooring such as black, but the marks are more noticeable on the gray flooring. Due to this, Greatmats does not recommend gray color to be used for tap dance.

Cut lengths may be longer than ordered. It may be necessary to cut the dance floor to fit your space.

Shoes with steel taps do not create black markings on marley, but all tap dance shoes will create some markings. A new tap dance shoe will leave the most markings on a gray-colored floor. Jazz dance shoes can also generate similar markings.

Custom-cut lengths are a custom order and cannot be returned.
