Dress Code
Why do we hae a dress code for dance? A dress code for dance is very important! Dance requires a wide range of motion. Wearing appropriate attire ensures that dancers can move freely without restriction, which is essential for executing movements accurately and effectively. Specific attire can help instructors assess a dancer's technique better. When students wear the right clothing, teachers can easily observe body alignment, posture, and movements all which contribute to a more effective learning environment.
All shoes can be purchased in the AOD Boutique. Jazz shoes and Hip-Hop Sneakers MUST be Weissmans brand and purchased through us.
