Dance Attire

All students at our studio are requested to wear proper dance attire during all classes. Please do not buy inexpensive tap or ballet shoes from a department or discount store. These shoes have soles that are not flexible and make dancing difficult. The dress code is in place to maintain class uniformity, which helps with correction and allows dancers to perform to their fullest potential during class.
