Some dance studios enforce a "Dress Code"? • The Dance Basics for Pre-Schoolers program is meant to give children the opportunity to "dance without boundries" and to explore a variety of dance styles with their parents present to help instill security and comfort.
Most formal dance schools request and enforce a set dress code. This is an important part of "learning to become a dancer". A dress code ensures that a teacher will be able to see a dancer’s alignment and positioning. • Baggy clothing and loose hair can mask poor technique and be dangerous for both the dancer and other students in the class • Most dance studios require students to wear a leotard and tights for ballet, sometimes requiring pink or light-coloured tights in order to make the lines of the legs visible. Hair should be pulled back and away from the face and eyes. • Form-fitting dancewear is also a requirement in many jazz, tap or modern classes.
A dress code will also teach students discipline, helping with overall focus and energy. By "dressing the part," dancers feel like dancers. Dress codes can also create unity among the dancers instead of causing a few dancers to stand out, much like a school uniform policy. • Dress codes go a long way in minimizing distractions, and help give classes a unified look.
An example of a dress code for primary dancers could be: • BALLET (GIRLS) • Bodysuit—Short sleeved, Tank or Camisole • Tights—Ballet pink • Ballet shoes—Pink Canvas or Leather • Hair pulled back in bun, if long enough, if short, pulled back
BOYS • White fitted T-shirt • Black Lycra Pants/Tights/Shorts • Ballet shoes-black canvas or Leather • Black Socks • Hair out of face
