Getting Ready for School each Day:
Each day your child will need to be dressed in:
Girls: a leotard and tights. An optional skirt, tumbling shorts or leggings are acceptable.
Boys: Shorts or work out pants with a t-shirt tucked in. Socks.
We would love for your dancer to have white ballet slippers for girls, black for boys for ballet/jazz, and a pair of black tap shoes (Wednesday students only).
We have a rental box at the studio. If you find a pair of shoes in here that fits your dancer, you can rent them for the year for a rental fee of just $10 - $5 of which you get back when you return the shoes in good condition.
Please secure hair away from face and neck. Pony tails or pig tails are preferred.
