Dress Code

Students are expected to maintain proper dress code listed in the drop down. Dancer hair should be pulled up away from the face. For safety reasons, dancers cannot chew gum during class.

Students can bring a small personal bag to each class with their dance shoes and a labeled water bottle. Please place street shoes in this bag or in a cubby in the waiting room upon arrival.

Why Dress Code Matters in Dance Class

A consistent dress code helps create a focused and disciplined learning environment. Proper attire allows instructors to see alignment, posture, and movement clearly, ensuring dancers receive accurate corrections and stay safe. Wearing the correct dancewear also helps students feel prepared and part of the team, promoting confidence and professionalism in class. We appreciate your support in helping dancers come to class dressed for success!
