Dress Code

It’s important for students abide by a dress code policy for the following reasons:

· A neat and tidy appearance sets an attitude of attentiveness and respect for students, teacher, and the art of dance.

· Teachers must be able to see the dancer's body outline clearly in order to make proper corrections on posture, alignment, etc.

· All leotards, skirts, and skirted leotards must be purchased through curtaincallforclass.com.

· Shoes and tights may be purchased through any company as long as they meet the dress code requirements.

· Hair must be properly secured in a ballet bun unless otherwise stated.

· Jewelry is not allowed.

· Gum chewing is not allowed due to danger of choking and appearance.

· No costumes are allowed in class unless a dress up day is announced by the studio.
