DRESS CODE POLICY

A cohesive appearance in the classroom helps our instructors ensure correct alignment and posture while mitigating bad habits resulting in improved technique from dancers. Below is our studios required dress code policy. 

In addition to this policy:

• Do not wear dance shoes outside  of the studio/staging areas.
• No jewelry (with the exception of stud earrings) is allowed to be worn in class as it can pose a dangerous risk of injury. 
• No gum chewing is allowed due to the danger of choking.
• No baggy clothing - loose-fitting pants, blue jeans & t-shirts are not dance attire.
• No costumes are allowed in class unless a dress up day is announced by the individual teacher.

Hair

Hair must be fully secured back and away from the face and off of the neck at all times, in all classes. For ballet, hair must be pulled back into a neat, secure ballet bun using bobby pins.  A ponytail with the hair in a double loop is not a bun.

How to Make the Perfect Ballet Bun

Dance Bag:

Please have a dance bag that has all the items that your dancer needs to have a great class! It should include hair items (hair ties, bobby pins, hair net, brush).  An extra pair of tights is always a great idea, too!
