Dress Code
Dress code is mandatary for all classes.
Students without proper dress code will be asked to observe the class only***. We will be enforcing this rule diligently this year!
Dress code isn't only for safety (slipping, tripping, etc.), but also for the instructor to evaluate each student properly. The instructor
needs to see the lines of the students’ movement to give them the best correction and feedback.

Pink Ballet Slippers (Leather or Canvas)
Hair in a bun
For male dancer: Black tank top, black tight shorts, black ballet slippers
