Dress Code

Appropriate dance wear and dance shoes are required for all classes.  The proper dress code prevents distraction in the studio while promoting discipline and uniformity.  It is meant to allow the teacher the ability.to monitor, correct body alignment, and coordination.  Furthermore, adhering to the dress code and a general neatness of appearance demonstrates respect for peers, teachers, the organization, and the art form as a whole.  For safety reasons students are asked to not wear jewelry of any kind during class. Please see the Dress Code for the class that you or your child will be taking.
