Dress Code

We are a dance school and we require all students be properly dressed for each class.  This allows the teachers to be able to see the student’s bodies for learning proper technique and body placement.  To feel like a dancer, you must dress the part!!

It is very distracting to not only the instructor, but also to other students when a child is not properly dressed to perform all stretches and dance moves.
