I teach Les Mills BodyCombat (mixed martial arts/kickboxing) and Les Mills BodyJam (Dance to the aerobic level) 15 classes per week. I LOVE these shoes. I just got them and wore them today and yesterday. If they came in other colors I'd buy more. SO light and SO supportive, yet Stable and flexible. I'll update this review should time make me feel differently. I will not wear these shoes for basic lifting or for my water aerobic classes -mostly because they are so stylized. This is not a con -just saying... they have that limitation for me.
