Attire
For the movement safety of your dancer and to allow instructors to see body lines in order to give appropriate corrections that prohibit misalignment and injury we ask that you dress your dancer in age appropriate attire described below.
Ages 3 -5
Girls:
-
leotard - pink, light blue, black or other pastel (may have chiffon skirt attached)
-
pink tights, white dress ankle socks or bare legs
-
ballet slippers* (pink leather or canvas only) or bare feet
Boys:
-
t-shirt, shorts, biker shorts or leggings (the more form fitting, but movement adaptable the better)
-
ballet slippers (white or black leather or canvas) or bare feet
​
Hair:
-
ALL hair should be secured off the face and longer hair in a pony tail or bun.
​
*Avoid purchasing ballet slippers at Target or shoe stores. The soles of these ballet slippers tend to be stiff and don't allow the dancer to point well.
*Also shoes should be form fitting with the toes resting (not curled under) against the tip of the shoe. Shoes that are too big don't allow for proper movement efficiency.
