It is important for students to abide by the dress code policy for safety reasons.

 

A neat and tidy appearance sets an attitude of attentiveness and respect for students, teachers, and the art of dance. Teachers must be able to see the dancer's body outline clearly to make proper corrections on posture, alignment, etc. Hair must be properly secured and tied up off the face and neck for all dance styles.

 

Jewelry must not be loose or dangling (small studs are acceptable). Gum chewing is not allowed due to the danger of choking and appearance. No loose-fitting pants, blue jeans, or t-shirts (they are not dance attire). No costumes are allowed in class unless a dress-up day is announced by the individual teacher
