Coming prepared and dressed for class is a part of

the disciple of dance. It prepares you in many ways:

​

1. It gets you thinking about class and puts you in the right frame of mind BEFORE you come to the studio.

2. It trains you to have all your dance items together and organized in preparation for performances.

3. Keeping your hair out of your face allows you to spot during turns and tricks

4. Proper shoe wear and dance wear allow you to move in the ways you need to and allow your teacher to see how your body is aligned.

​

Below are the guidelines you must follow in order to participate in class:

​

• Face masks are optional and may be worn if the dancer prefers.

• Dancers must arrive prepared/dressed for dance class. There will be no changing upon arrival or between classes.

• Shoes are the responsibility of the dancer to purchase and maintain. Teachers will make specific shoe requests known the first week of class.

  • Parents/Guardians, please keep in mind your student's abilities when choosing slip-on, tie or buckled shoes. Dancers are responsible for putting on their own shoes. ​

• ​Students need to bring their own water bottle to class.

• Parents/Guardians, please make sure your student's name is written somewhere on their dance shoes and water bottle.

• Instructors reserve the right to make adjustments to set guidelines at their discretion.

• Dress code will be enforced the 3rd week of classes.

• Note: sweaters, sweatshirts and dance jackets may be used during warm-ups only

• Many high school classes are TBD of either Black or Tan Jazz shoes depending on which color will best compliment your costume. High Schoolers enrolled in these classes, please feel free to wear whichever jazz shoe color you prefer to class until your instructor informs you of a definitive color choice.

​

Ideally we would like you to have these items available to your student prior to the first day of class. If you have any further questions, please address them to your dance teacher as they may have specific request.

Thank you for your cooperation!​​
