Dress Code:

For Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Modern, Lyrical and Turn/Stretch, dancers will need to be in leotard and tights with proper shoes. Dancers can wear leotard/tights for Hip Hop or they can also wear t-shirt and shorts. There is not a specific color of leotard that is needed. Any color is fine. We welcome our preschoolers and level I students to wear ballet skirts or tutus if they would like. We ask that all dancers wear their hair pulled back and secured. During ballet, hair in a bun is highly recommended. We understand that there may not be time to secure hair in a bun if students are coming straight from school.
