DSI - DanceSport International Ltd. formerly known as Hearn & Spencer Ltd., was founded in 1982 by Geoffrey Hearn and Peggy Spencer MBE. 1987 saw the start of the company’s venture into Video production, with it’s first title called “Ballroom Lines”. We are still producing top quality dvds, our latest being called “The Irvine Legacy” featuring Oliver Wessel-Therhorn with William Pino & Alessandra Bucciarelli. In 1996 the Company purchased the liquidated stock of "DanceTogs" - a well known shoe and accessories business, and with this purchase came the Exhibition rights to sell these products at the prestigious Open British Championships in Blackpool. In 1997 the Company purchased a Jewellery business called “Golden Girl” and again their Exhibition rights at the Blackpool Festival.

In 2000 we decided to start the dress making department we employed a designer & four machinists and we are pleased to say that the original four machinists are still with us, but the machining team now numbers twelve. With 23 staff in total making up the dress & tailoring departments.

Development is an on-going part of our business, with new shoes being offered for both the Competitive and Social dancer; we are constantly bringing out new dress designs and are always on the look-out for new products to add to our catalogues. We also hope to develop and expand our dealer network all over the world to be able to offer dancers the ability to purchase from a local source.

We are one of the few companies able to offer Ballroom & Latin dancers throughout the world a total service by Mail Order. We are also pleased to welcome many visitors to our Showroom in Croydon, where customers may browse at their leisure, listen to CD’s, view dvds and select shoes etc. from the stocks always available.
