Yes, a competent cobbler can replace heels on dance shoes. You wouldn't want to increase the height by more than 1", though, as the last (the part of the shoe under your arch) is engineered to tilt at a certain angle depending on the height of the heel.

How to Select The Right Shoe For The Right Kinds Of Dance?

Dance Shoes - Then and Now We can thank shoemakers of the 15th and 16th centuries for the art of creating dance shoes. In Baroque courtesan dance, shoes were made for comfort while imparting elegance as worn exclusively by male dancers. They wore soft leather boots or heeled shoes with large buckles. By mid-16th century, ballet dance shoes were created for female dancers who were finally allowed to perform publicly. Today, dance shoes are worn for ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop, Irish step and flamenco dance. Dance shoes are also required for ballroom dance and square dance. How To Choose The Right Dance Shoes Ballet dance usually begins with training in a soft leather shoe with a pleated toe. As dancers begin to advance, they will graduate to wearing pointe shoes made of satin-covered fabric. However, the toes of pointe shoes are blocked or stiffened so that the dancer can perform ballet on her toes. In early Vaudeville days, these pointe shoes could have a metal tap attached to the toes to allow dancers to tap dance on the tips of their toes. Tap dance shoes basically have a small metal plate attached at the toe and also at the heel. There are two types of tap dance shoes: those with flat heels and those with a one or two inch chorus girl heel. Flamenco dance shoes are similar to tap dance shoes. Irish Step Dance shoes also have metal taps on the heels and toes; but these dance shoes are more flexible and allow for dancing on half toe. Jazz dancers usually prefer to wear a soft leather oxford shoe with an elk sole and pleated toe for flexibility of movement. Hip hop dance shoes are usually the same type of ballet slippers or jazz oxford, depending on the dancer’s preferences. Ballroom Dance and Square Dance Shoes Ballroom dance shoes tend to be quite glamorous. They are usually colored to match dance costumes and are most often dyed satin fabric with a mid-size heel for women. Male ballroom dancers wear black leather dance shoes. Male square dancers often choose cowboy boots while the women wear mid-size heeled dance shoes.
