What to wear/bring
Class Dress Code:
Ladies: Leotard (uniform leotard will be provided to you with Registration Fee); Pink or flesh-toned footed tights; Pink or flesh-toned ballet shoes.
Gentlemen: Black tights/leggings or shorts; White T-shirt or leotard (uniform leotard will be provided to you with Registration Fee); White socks; Black ballet shoes
NOTE: We recommend that dancers come to the studio with dance clothes on, ready to dance. However, students should wear appropriate street shoes for travel to/from the studio: ballet slippers should never be worn outside, and a cover-up should always be worn.
Please label dance slippers and other dance equipment with student initials, so that they can be returned to you if left behind!
Dancers are also welcome to bring a water bottle (again, please label with initials :)
To help dancers focus: Hair should be pulled neatly back; no jewelry, please!
Street shoes are not permitted in the studio on the professional dance floor; please note that we ask everyone (parents and kids alike) to remove street shoes in the waiting area to keep the floor where our young children stretch and put on their shoes clean and safe. Thanks for your understanding!
Dance studio courtesies
Try your best to always be on time for class.
Strollers should be folded whenever possible and should not be left blocking walkways.
We appreciate your help in keeping the studio clean and safe.
Valuables should not be left unattended. Ballet Fantastique is not responsible for lost articles.
NOTE: Over the course of many years of dance education, we’ve found that children do best in dance class when parents and family members leave the studio (and waiting area space) during class to maximize focus and minimize distraction for all young students. Thank you for helping us promote student learning!
