I don't allow shoes in the studio as a norm. We have a shoe rack in the front and you park them there.
We train barefoot to insure proper ankle, foot, and toe positions. I want to be able to see and correct the positions and you can't get a good look in shoes. Of course you have to keep up personal hygiene as a courtesy to others. In all the studios that I have visited that train most always with shoes, (particularly in the beginning) the foot positions are always sloppy and in need of adjustment.
With that being said.... there are other times when training with shoes is extremely useful to "condition" the student for what they will be experiencing BUT .......... But... when we do it is not with a light flimsy shoe designed just for mats, it is with dress shoes, or sneakers or everyday shoes that everyone wears!
