ATTIRE & APPEARANCE
Class Attire
Students are required to be correctly dressed when they attend class. To properly execute all turns, leaps, and routines, dancers must have on the appropriate attire. Required dancewear ranges from tights, leotards, biking shorts, tank tops and T-shirts, soffe shorts, leggings, athletic pants, pink ballet shoes, beige tap shoes, black jazz shoes, and high heel beige jazz shoes or other dance related attire. Baton classes need white tennis shoes and a properly fitted baton. Dancewear should always be freshly laundered and a good deodorant is required. Hair needs to be pulled away from the face and out of the eyes. Jewelry will not be permitted in dance class except for small earrings. We will not allow blue jeans, tennis shoes, school clothes, etc. in class. Extra dance outfits will be available at the studio and students will be asked to change. Proper attire will be mandatory for admittance into any class, students will be asked to call home and step out of class, if they continually show up to class unprepared.
