Class Dress Code
Ballet or appropriate dance shoes are required for all students. Leotard and tights or leggings are required for female identifying and non-binary students who are comfortable wearing them. Black dance shorts and/or ballet skirts are allowed. Solid colored t-shirts and black dance pants are required for male identifying and non-binary students. Hair should be off the face and in a bun for all students with long hair. We want a clean-lined, disciplined environment, but your comfort is deeply important to us. Contact Amber with any questions or concerns regarding dress code.
Ballet shoes should be canvas or leather with a split sole. We especially like Capezio “Hanami” style. You can find these and others at Step ‘N Stretch, Grand Jete and online.
