Dress Code

FEMALE BALLET/POINTE STUDENTS 

All girls/women in our ballet classes should wear ballet pink or white tights, pink ballet slippers, and a modest leotard. Shirts/tank tops, shorts, sweats, leggings, long skirts, and jewelry are NOT permitted. 

Children’s Division

PRE-PRIMARY: Light pink leotard

PRIMARY: Lilac leotard

LEVEL 1: Mulberry leotard

LEVEL 2: Light blue leotard

LEVEL 3: Purple leotard

These levels are also permitted to wear any style of short skirt or tutu, but it must be at least two inches above the knee.

Pre-Professional Division

LEVEL 4: Royal blue leotard

LEVEL 5: Maroon leotard 

LEVEL 6: Black leotard

Students in these levels are ONLY permitted to wear a short wrap or pull-on dance skirt.

All female students must have their hair SECURED in a ballet bun, not a loosely tied knot or ponytail. Not only is this the professional standard in ballet, but having your hair down makes it difficult for teachers to see your neck and shoulder alignment and negatively impacts turns.
