I do Zumba classes 3 times a week, and I initially bought these for that purpose. Well they are wonderful! they are light, supportive and well made. I love them. I have a flat wide foot so I went up a size, but the fit is perfect. As a matter of fact this is my second pair!

I've never bought Rykas before, but I'm really happy with these! I have the gray pair and love how they look with jeans. My feet are pretty big, and I am so pleased that they don't look like boats in these shoes. If you need a lot of arch support, there isn't a lot. But the tongue is padded, so I find that the ball of my foot and my toes (both typically problem areas for my feet) are very cushioned.

I recently started teaching Zumba in our local gym/club here in Texas. As for the first 2 weeks of doing it, I started feeling pain on my toes and heels. I love Zumba so much that I don't want to stop teaching because of the pain I am experiencing on my legs, and so I started looking for some shoes that will be suited and appropriate for the class, and there was Ryka Studio D from Zappos. I started reading the reviews about the shoes and made me decide to purchase it. So far, I've been wearing these shoes for my AM and PM Zumba class on Tuesdays and Thursdays and enjoying every step of the shoes. Now half of my class is wearing these shoes and they all bought them from Zappos. I highly recommend the shoes and Zappos for their fast service.

I purchased the Ryka shoes for my exercise Zumba class. They are wonderful providing a great fit and are true to size. They actually the best shoes I have ever purchased and at a great price.

I love my shoes! I wear them to Jazzercise and they are very comfortable. I ordered 1/2 size bigger than I usually wear and they are perfect. After only wearing the sneakers for one week, one of the tabs that the laces go through came apart. I called the customer service and explained the problem and Zappos sent me out a brand new pair without any questions! Great service! I have used other shoe websites, but Zappos has them beat! Will order from you again and will also order the sneakers again!

I have a double A width with a quad A heel. There were no dance aerobic shoes available in a narrow online or in the stores for use in my Zumba classes. I read some of the online reviews for Ryka studio D and decided to try them. I ordered my normal size 9 so I could wear a little heavier sock and lace them up snuggly. They made a big difference on the very first day I wore them to class. Now I don't worry about injury to my knees. Using the Granite/Gun Metal/Vanilla ones so they are cute too. They could use a little bit more cushioning for the more hip hop moves but an insert can be used.

Ryka Studio D is a great shoe for Zumba. My feet are flat and narrow and these shoes give me the support I need with the flexibility to twist and dance. Very comfortable - and the silver color looks great. I wear my normal size and at first they are a bit snug and stiff, but after a few classes they feel wonderful. This is my 6th pair!

These are exactly what I needed. I was looking for shoes I could use to walk to and from school, about 25 minutes each way and I needed good sole support for the cement while still having a shoe that I could wear daily for business school.

I purchased these shoes for Jazzercise. I wanted a shoe with more style and pizazz and I was pleasantly surprised.They have very good arch support and are most comfortable. The bonus: they look great!

First time I ordered from here. Fast service. Shoes felt a little tight on my little toes the first couple of times I used them to Jazzercise, but then I got use to them and they feel great. No more knee, foot pain. Really glad I gave them a go.

LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! I've now had these for about a month and they are a great dance sneaker that fits your foot like a dance sneaker should. I teach Zumba 4 days a week and they feel and look great!

I normally wear 8 1/2 narrow. This shoe is 8 1/2 medium and fits well with a thin sock. Very comfortable and supportive.

I bought these shoes for Zumba class and they are wonderful. I can slide on the floor and move easily and they provide great support. Good price and comfortable!

Fit properly on the first try. They have made Jazzercise easier; don't stick to the floor like in my regular sneakers.

No disappointment here. Great shoes for Zumba. The fit and comfort is awesome. I get all my shoes from Zappos. They have outstanding customer service. Always get my order within 2-3 days, no matter if it says 5-7 days. Very fast delivery.

I really like this shoe. I wear it for aerobics & zumba classes, and it\'s just perfect. It\'s slick enough on the bottom to allow for quick turns, and has internal support as well. I did have to go up a size on this shoe. But it fits well and is a nice looking shoe.\r\n\r\nBefore, I had worn the Ryka Intensity XT3, which I also liked--but for a dance type class, the Studio D is a better shoe (in my opinion).

I bought these shoes for Zumba and they are very comfortable and supportive. I purchased these in 7M, but for some reason, these shoes run 1/2 size smaller than all the other Rykas that I have owned. I wear them with very thin socks. I would recommend buying them 1/2 size up.

Great shoe for Zumba or dance/aerobic class. I had to buy 1/2 size larger than normal, otherwise they're great.

These shoes fit very well and I\'m looking forward to trying them out at my Jazzercise class. I\'ve been wearing my regular Asics running shoes and slip, sliding around in the shoe and the Ryka\'s fit like a glove without being too tight. Will make a post when I\'ve had a chance to actually see how they do during my classes.

These shoes are great. I first started Zumba class in my running shoes and almost fell over my feet. Now my moves are smooth, well at least as far as my shoes are concerned. I went up 1/2 size from my regular shoes and they fit well. I could have even gone up another half size. For the price, they are great. So I'm not quite ready for "So you think you can dance" yet, but these shoes really help. I wanted black, but they were not available in my size at the time, but the gray is fine.

These shoes are perfect for me. I use them for my Curves workouts and they are nice and light, but have excellent support. I wear a 9.5 and that size fit well.

The absolute best! I have the pickiest feet on the planet! I teach kickboxing, step and other classes and have run for years! My feet undergo such a demand for constant foot flexion that my arches were about to colapse as well as other pains and issues. I buy shoe after shoe trying to find one that I can teach in without pain. I end up returning them. I probably tryout 100 shoes a year (no exaggeration though probably hard to believe). I saw a video of someone teaching kickboxing (high impact/jumpkicks, etc) in these shoes. I waited for the credits in the video to find out what shoe they were. I cannot tell you enough how awesome these shoes have been for me! I have taught ten classes a week in them for the last four months with absolutely no pain, no problems! I am thrilled! My foot needs wide in the toebox, narrow heel, not too much tongue padding (puts my foot to sleep), perfect arch support (too much hurts my foot), and soles that allow me to pivot but don't allow me to slip when the hardwood floor gets sweat on it or gets wet from humidity in the room. They do it all for me.

I couldn't find Ryka shoes in any of my local stores, so I ordered these from Zappo. Ryka shoes are made on a woman's last as opposed to regular women's athletic shoes that are made on a boy's last. I wear a C width shoe, but I have very narrow heels. Ryka shoes are the only ones that fit my heels and I don't feel like I am going to walk out of them. In other shoes, I have to tie them so tight that my instep begins to hurt, and, yet, they still are loose on my heels. I also like the fact that they make my feet look small.
