Dress Code
Our dress code is designed so teachers can see the dancer’s body lines, including posture, arms, legs and feet. Dancers will get the most out of their classes when the dress code is followed.
• Long hair should be worn up either in a tight ponytail or bun, OR any style that has it secured away from the face.
Tiny Tots (ages 2.5-3)
Leotard, dance dress, or tutu of any color with flesh toned or pink color tights is appropriate for any Tiny Tot level class. Pink or flesh colored ballet shoes for ballet, tan tap shoes for tap, and tan jazz shoes for jazz. All can be purchased through the studio.
Prima Level (ages 4-5)
Leotard, dance dress, or tutu of any color with flesh toned or pink color tights is appropriate for any PRIMA level class. Pink or flesh colored ballet shoes for ballet, tan tap shoes for tap, and tan jazz shoes for jazz. All can be purchased through the studio.
Barefoot for Prima Acro
Combo Classes
All dancers must wear fitted clothing. Tights and a leotard with hair pulled away from their face (preferably in a bun). Leotards can be patterned, colored, or solid. It is easiest for dancers who have several styles in one day to wear the same leotard and tights for all classes and just change their shoes. They can also put shorts, leggings, or Capri pants over their leotard for tap and jazz if they wish. A one piece biketard or unitard is also acceptable. Ballet skirts are acceptable for ballet. Two piece dance outfits are acceptable for all styles except ballet. All pants should be form-fitting (not baggy) and not touch the floor. Fitted dance shirts or tanks are permitted for all styles except ballet. *Dancers must have the correct style shoes for each style they take (please see shoe section below).
