Size & Fit Advice

The Zone sizing: Choose using The Zone size options and the size guide on this page. Compare your child’s body measurements with the chart, using the age description as a guide. Torso girth is particularly useful when choosing a gymnastics leotard.

Fit: A close gymnastics fit through the body, with fitted full-length sleeves and a scoop back. The neckline should sit neatly without gaping, and the shoulders and underarms should feel comfortable when moving. Individual fit can vary with body proportions and style.

Check torso length: Measure from the centre of one shoulder, down the front of the body, through the crotch and back up to the same shoulder in one continuous loop.

Try a gentle stretch: Ask your child to lift both arms overhead, bend the elbows and lean gently to each side. Check for pulling through the shoulders, underarms or torso. Sleeve ends should sit comfortably at the wrists, leaving the hands clear. If measurements fall between sizes, use girth as a key guide; the larger size is generally the better starting point. Ask our team if you need help choosing.

The Zone Size & Fit Advice

The Zone gymnastics leotards are designed for a close, flexible fit. Use actual body measurements rather than age alone wherever possible. For leotards, girth is especially important because it reflects the full length of the torso. If measurements fall between two sizes, the larger size is usually the better starting point.

Dance World Tip

For gymnastics leotards, girth is the key measurement when the numbers point to different sizes. If height or chest suggests one size but girth sits closer to the next, choosing the larger size will usually give a more comfortable torso fit.

Dance World Measuring Guide

How to Measure for The Zone Gymnastics Leotards

Measure over underwear or close-fitting clothing using a flexible tape measure. Stand naturally and keep the tape comfortably against the body without pulling it tight.

Girth

Key Measurement

Using a flexible tape measure, start at the centre of one shoulder. Bring the tape down the front of the torso, through the crotch and back up to the same shoulder, creating one complete loop.

Keep the tape comfortably close to the body without pulling it tight. Girth is especially useful when choosing between two leotard sizes.

Chest

Measure around the fullest part of the chest, keeping the tape straight and level around the body. The tape should sit comfortably without compressing the chest.

Waist

Measure around the natural waist, usually the narrowest part of the torso. Keep the tape level and comfortably close to the body.

Hips

Measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat while standing naturally. Keep the tape level all the way around.

Hips are not included in this particular The Zone size table, but they can still be useful when checking overall body proportions and leotard coverage.

Height

Stand straight without shoes, with feet flat on the floor, and measure from the floor to the top of the head.

The Zone Fit Guidance

The Zone uses numbered gymnastics sizes rather than standard clothing sizes. Current girls' styles commonly progress from size 24 for younger children through sizes 26, 28, 30 and 32, with size 34 moving into Women's Small on many models. Use age only as a guide and prioritise actual body measurements, particularly girth, when choosing a leotard.

Dance World Fit Note The Zone size chart is intended as a guide only. Fit may vary slightly between leotard styles depending on cut, fabric, stretch and body proportions. If measurements fall between two sizes, the larger size is generally the safer starting point, particularly when girth is close to the upper end of the range.

Best For: Club displays • Competition preparation • Gymnastics performances • Club training

Description

A Sweep of Blue and Sparkle

The Zone Radiance Z828RAD girls’ long sleeve gymnastics leotard brings striking detail to a blue-to-white ombré design. Black trim crosses at the front neckline, framing a pattern of crystals that sweeps towards the waist. The sparkle continues across the back and along the forearms, giving the full-length sleeves their own decorative finish. Radiance combines stretch with a close gymnastics shape. It is an eye-catching choice for club displays, competition preparation and gymnasts who enjoy a more elaborate performance look.

The Zone Radiance Z828RAD Gymnastics Leotard – Design & Performance

The 83% recycled polyester and 17% spandex blend provides stretch through the body and sleeves for reaching and bending. Radiance has fitted, full-length sleeves that finish at the wrists, with a close gymnastics shape through the torso. A shaped front neckline is outlined by crossing black trim, adding a crisp contrast above the decoration.

The sublimated ombré print moves between white, pale blue and a deeper blue lower body. Across the front, crystal rows form nested V shapes and intersecting lines, ending in a sparkling band near the waist. Further trails fan upwards from the cuffs, carrying the decorative theme along the forearms.

A black-edged scoop back leaves the upper back exposed, with dark diagonal lines extending towards the armholes. Below it, crystals radiate from the waist across the back, above a simpler lower section. The contrast between pale shoulders, deeper blue fabric and precise sparkling rows gives Radiance a bold, coordinated finish from every side.

Keep the Back Visible

A securely tied hairstyle keeps longer hair clear of the crystal pattern during a routine.

Allow Time to Change

Give young gymnasts a few extra minutes to ease their hands through the decorated sleeves without tugging.

Simple Warm-Up Layers

Plain warm-up bottoms keep the outfit easy to coordinate for the journey to class or a club event.

Pack with Care

A smooth fabric pouch keeps the body and cuff decoration away from grips and exposed hook-and-loop fastenings.

Who Is The Zone Radiance Z828RAD Best For?

Radiance suits young gymnasts who enjoy a dramatic performance style with full-length sleeves. The detailed body and cuff decoration makes it an appealing option for displays, competition preparation and special club occasions. Before choosing it for an event, check whether the organiser or coach requires a specific team leotard.

Product Highlight

✦ The Sleeves Get Their Own Sparkle

Radiance carries its crystal design right down to the wrists. Fan-like trails rise from the decorated cuffs, echoing the rows across the body and bringing detail to raised arms and finishing poses. Against the pale sleeves, these small points of sparkle complete the look.

DANCE WORLD Parent Guide

How Should Long Sleeves Sit at the Wrists?

Full-length gymnastics sleeves should finish comfortably around the wrists, leaving the hands clear. When trying on Radiance, check the sleeve ends with the arms relaxed, then ask your child to reach overhead and bend both elbows. Look for comfort around the shoulders and underarms as well as the cuffs.

Check torso length and sleeve fit together. Pulling at the shoulders may mean the body is too short, even when the sleeves appear long enough. Use The Zone size guide and your child’s measurements, and ask our team for advice if the body and sleeve fit seem to need different sizes.
