Dress Code

Why a dress code? A dress code not only supports the safety and success of your dancer, it also teaches discipline, and promotes unity within a class, and studio wide. Wearing appropriate attire and footwear helps prevent injury, and encourages confidence. Dancers being dressed similarly helps instructors identify mistakes, which again, is key in injury prevention.

For all classes, jewelry must be removed. Small 'stud' style earrings are permitted. Students need to bring their own filled and labelled water bottle.
