Dance Attire
All dancers should wear comfortable clothing that allows freedom of movement and dance. Leotards and tights can be worn but are not required. T-shirt and leggings/athletic shorts or a dress with shorts are also acceptable dance attire. Please no denim, restrictive fabrics, or pant/shorts with excessive buttons/zippers.
If you choose to wear tights to a class that dances barefoot, please wear transition or footless tights.
