Is there specific clothing and/or shoes needed (what should my child wear to class)?

Great question!!! Yes, depending on the class, there may be certain dress and/or shoe requirements. For EVERY class, you must have appropriate SHOES for that style of dance - for example, jazz shoes, ballet shoes, tap shoes. No regular shoes allowed on the dance floor. Should you forget your shoes, you will not be able to participate in class Ballet & Pointe: Girls: Pink, black or tan tights, footed or convertible style. If you are doing pointe work, you will want convertible tights. This will make it easier to put on toe pads if you put them inside your tights. A comfortable, solid-color leotard. A sheer wrap skirt or booty shorts over leotard is acceptable. Boys: Wear supportive underwear or a dance belt (a kind of smooth jock-strap) under your tights. Black fitted shorts instead of full-length tights are ok. Wear a fitted, white t-shirt (make sure that it is form-fitting). Wear white crew or ankle socks. Use black ballet shoes (ballet shoes come in leather or canvas). The Power Kids: Black, slip-on jazz shoes are used during rehearsal and performances. Tippie Toes: Similar to ballet description; however, you may choose between ballet slippers OR jazz shoes. Zumba: Any comfortable, supportive, non-marking gym or dance shoe is acceptable. Musical Theater and Drum Club: Any "closed-toe" shoe is appropriate, as we will be practicing in our music hall and not on the dance floor. Also, NO JEANS allowed in any dance class.
Is there a new student registration fee?
