General guidelines:
-
For all classes, hair should be securely tied away from the face, ideally in a neat bun. This applies to all levels, including pre-school classes.
-
No jewelry or watches other than small stud earrings.
-
Ballet shoes should be made of canvas or leather
-
Drawstrings should be knotted, trimmed, and tucked into the shoe prior to first class
-
-
Jazz shoes are pull-on (no laces)
-
Primary Ballet through Ballet 8/PrePro Ballet have a particular color of leotard. These do not need to be a specific style or make, your dancer can pick a fit they are comfortable dancing in.
-
Dance shoes should not be worn outside, including sneakers for hip-hop.
-
We have a "Take a Pair, Leave a Pair" bin at the studio for gently worn shoes and clean leotards. Please feel free to look through before purchasing items.
