Performance Studios Dress Codes
Why are Dress Codes important?
Dress codes promote a community and a dancer's identity when they walk into the studio for their Dance Lessons, it inspires discipline in our students and helps to promote safety.
Most importantly when students are dressed appropriately for class their instructor are able to check their bodies alignment and make appropriate corrections to help prevent injuries.
​
We ask that all students please follow the dress code. If a student comes to class and is not dressed properly they maybe be asked to sit and observe the class for the day. We also have appropriate dance items that can be borrowed for the day and returned when class is over. We ask that no jewelry be worn to class, as this is a safety hazard.
-There is to be no jewelry worn during class.
-All hair should be pulled up into a ponytail or bun
and be off the face.
