DRESS CODE
To ensure a professional and safe dance environment, we ask that all students come dressed in appropriate attire for each class.
-
Beige body tights or tights must always be worn in every dance class (knee highs or full nylons are not considered tights).
-
Black bodysuits must also be worn in every class regardless of age or style of dance.
-
Hair should be pulled back away from the face and neck in a ponytail, bun, or pigtails.
-
Ballet slippers and jazz slippers/oxfords must be tight-fitting, with no more than a ¼ inch growth room.
-
Tap shoes should not have more than ½ inch of room in the toe.
-
If you are concerned about your shoes lasting through the year, we recommend purchasing better quality leather shoes that stretch with use and growth.
-
-
During the winter, sweaters are allowed during warm-ups only.
-
Please refrain from layering your child with long sleeves, turtlenecks, or t-shirts under their bodysuits.
-
-
Please do not wear undergarments (i.e. underwear) under the tights, and ensure that bras are not visible.
-
Sports bras are preferred at the studio, and we ask that traditional lace or colorful bras not be worn.
-
-
For safety reasons, we do not allow old costumes, t-shirts, baggy pants, sweatshirts, hats, hair scarves, hoop earrings, necklaces, watches, bracelets, or ill-fitting shoes in dance class. Let’s work together to keep our studio safe!
