Dress Code

A standard dress code allows dancers to move freely during class while providing the teacher with an unobstructed view of the student's alignment and body placement.

Please review the following dress code for each class that you and/or your child is registered for.

Note:

1. Please choose dance wear that is modest and offers appropriate support and coverage.

2. Please wear warmups over your dance attire when entering and exiting the building. There may be other events going on elsewhere in the building during class time.

Hair

For all classes, hair and bangs should be pulled back away from the face and secured tightly in a traditional ballet bun or French twist style. If you need a quick tutorial, don’t hesitate to ask!
