Dancers are in training & everyone within the classes needs to stay focused   Dress Code & Hair Policy We are trying to make our studio the best possible learning experience for your child. When dancers are dressed properly with their hair up they carry themselves differently, pay closer attention, and work harder! As a parent, please take the responsibility to see that they have the necessary hair and dance attire with them for each class. It is VERY IMPORTANT that dancers learn at a young age the discipline of dressing appropriately for dance classes. If dancers are not appropriately dressed for class they may be asked to sit down in lieu of participating. Unacceptable dancewear for all levels consists of bright, neon, stripped, print or tie-dyed shirts, any baggie clothes or street clothes, obscene or suggestive articles of clothing, etc. Please ask your teacher before wearing any questionable items to class Students must have hair properly fixed and properly dressed BEFORE entering class! Ballet - Dress Code & Hair Policy All Ballet Classes & Age Groups: Ballet demands a respect within this discipline, proper clothing as well as hair slicked back and in a neat bun and with a hair net.
