2020/2021 SEASON CLASS DRESS CODE The proper foot wear and dance wear is required and an important part of class. Students must wear the proper dance attire and footwear to class. Students may wear similar style dance shoes that they already have until they outgrow them and or purchase required ones. Dance shoes may not be worn outside. All students must wear long hair in a ponytail, braid or bun. Ballet students must wear a bun to class. No jewelry should be worn to class. Leotards must be a solid color, without large colored pictures on them. A stiff net tutu is not allowed in class. Oversized t-shirts, boxer shorts, pajamas or jeans are not permitted in class. A fitting garment, in the appropriate color, may be worn over the leotard for warmth. Please check for loose screws in tap shoes, as they damage the dance floor.
