Dance Wear Guidelines
  • Footwear: Bare feet or footpaws recommended. You may wear Jazz or Turner shoes if that is what you are more comfortable dancing in. Tennis shoes may be used for the Hip Hop combo if you prefer.
*Please note, dance co-dancers are trained and perform primarily barefoot (besides hip-hop and tap). We highly recommend practicing and dancing barefoot to prepare.
  • Clothing: Dancers must wear All-Black, tight-fitting dance attire. Tops must be appropriate—no crop tops/sports bras. Bottoms must be an appropriate length: no booty shorts or spankies.
  • Hair: Can be down or up, but must be away from your face. Pull the front pieces back somehow. 
*Recommend a slicked-back ponytail/bun to stay out of the dancers ' faces and to not distract from their dancing.
