Costumes
If you are enrolling in a combination class (example: Tap/Ballet/Jazz), one style of dance will be performed at the Holiday Show in December and a different style at the Spring Revue. Holiday Show costumes are borrowed from the studio at no charge. Costumes for the Spring Revue are purchased and are yours to keep (except certain borrowed pieces). The average cost of a non-competition class costume is $60-$70.
Dance Attire and Dress
Dancers should wear clothing that is comfortable and allows for full range of motion. Examples include: leotards, athletic tank tops, dance or yoga pants, dance shorts. We again will be selling dancewear etc. at the Dance studio. Please make sure your dancer has a dance bag to put their shoes in. Please label your child’s shoes with their first and last name.
