Proper dance attire is important in creating a productive learning environment in dance class. Please adhere to the dress code as it allows the student a broad range of movement and provides the instructor with the ability to see the student’s body and make necessary corrections. Following the dress code establishes good work ethic, respect, discipline, unity, focus, and energy during class.
Hair should be secured in a bun (for ballet) or ponytail (for jazz, tap, and modern). Shorter hairstyles should be secured back from the face.
Please limit jewelry to small earrings. Large or dangling earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, and watches can be dangerous.
