I thought I’d covered all the bases when discussing Stage Legs in the last Product Blog – but turns out I missed out one jazzy use! Well, I say Jazz, but actually I mean Zumba! Zumba is the latest craze in dance exercise and we’ve been handing out advice and quotes to teachers of Zumba who want a safe and convenient stage to shake their booty on.
1, 2, 3 Zumba!
Stage leg heights are paramount when considering a stage for teaching dance (Zumba or otherwise!). Whilst it’s essential that everyone can see the teacher it’s also important that the stage height is safe for the teacher to be jumping around on. As Maltbury customise our legs to any height, we can provide a stage that is safe and robust but that also allows for the whole class to see what move they need to master next!
For more info on Zumba check out the UK website. If you’re interested in receiving a quote get in touch with us at the office or find out more information about dance stages here.

We’ve had a lot of orders recently for different sized stage legs from customers who have already purchased a stage from us.
Modular Stage Legs
This is always encouraging as it means customers are really taking advantage of the versatility of their modular decks.
At one height the decks are already versatile – being able to change from a proscenium stage to a catwalk or even to in the round. But with different heights all sorts of stage formations are possible.
Boxhill School recently bought new legs for their stage and used them to make a raised platform that made the ‘bed’ in their Arabian Nights production – I’ve requested a picture as this has intrigued me!
Tiered Staging
Apart from offering different stylistic design choices, having different sized legs at your disposable means the stage can be customised for specific purposes.
Legs can also be used to create a raked stage whereby the stage is slightly sloped down towards the front of the stage. Or the different leg heights can be used to make a tiered stage for a choir or for tiered seating.
We have re-designed our stage legs so they can now be used either way around. This makes assembly easier as there is less to think about!
Our Steel legs are also priced very competitively – did you know four 200mm legs will cost just £8? Bargain!
