Dress Code
Every student must follow the dress code. Dress code is very important in dance class for instructors to see proper body alignment and posture to make corrections. Each style of dance has specific requirements.
If you take multiple classes back to back please check with the instructor as to what is appropriate as to avoid changing after each class. If a student comes to class consistently not following dress code they will not be able to participate in class.
A black leotard is required for all students. (No unitards or bike shorts).
Hair must be tied back away from the face in a ponytail, braid, bun, etc., and secured tightly The hair must be secured tightly with the necessary hair clips so that it does not fall out. This can be a distraction during class, disrupting the dancer’s ability to dance effectively, and it can be considered dangerous if hair accessories fall onto the floor.
Students may wear form fitting dance sweaters (no sweatshirts or school sweaters).
Sheer dance skirts, black Jazz leggings or shorts for Jazz, Lyrical, and Tap only (must be form-fitting).
