Attire and Dress Code

ATTIRE & DRESS CODE (revised August 2024)

We want our students to come to class feeling great.
Our dress code is developed to provide students the opportunity to wear what feels comfortable while ensuring that our instructors can properly address lines and technique.
All attire should be clean and not too loose fitting.  No Jeans allowed.  
Hair should be pulled back off face and please do not wear any loose jewelry. 

We love to support local and highly recommend the wonderful team at
Classique Dancewear
to help with all of your dance gear needs!
