What to Wear

Our main goal is always for students to be safe and comfortable. Please see the listing below for additional attire requirements.

Preschool Dance

Preschool dance students should wear comfortable, easy to move in clothes on dance days. Ballet slippers are required for girls. They should be a tight fit and have laces cut off at the tips. (See our ballet slippers how-to pictures at the bottom of this page for instructions). Preschool girls are also welcome to wear tutus, leotards, ballet dress etc. to class if the host facility allows and parents choose to provide these items. Students must be able to be dressed before class starts.

Hip Hop

Hip Hop students should wear comfortable, modest, and easy-to move in shirts and pants/shorts with tennis shoes.

Grade School Dance Fusion

Dancers should wear comfortable, modest, and easy-to move in shirts, black jazz pants, and black jazz shoes.

Ballet Slippers— How To:

Make sure they are a comfortable but snug fit. Ballet slippers should be pink, leather, single-sole. Amazon has wonderful lace-free options or see below :

Pull laces so that there is a snug fit around the entire foot:

Label the “Right” and “Left”: (Ballet shoes are the same on both sides but they will mold to the feet over time)

Our Little Ballerina’s feet tend to grow fast! While it is always best to buy shoes from a dance store to ensure a proper and professional fitting, it is perfectly fine to buy shoes at any local or discount shoe store that sells them. You will probably have to replace them frequently during your little one’s first few years of ballet!
