Dress Code

All dancers are strongly encouraged to attend class in proper dress code. Dress code allows our instructors to easily correct dancers alignment, reduce chances of injury, notice fine details, and create a clean look to the classroom. We acknowledge that some students do not feel comfortable in our dress code expectations - if that is the case, we ask them to still dress appropriately for dance classes and physical movement.
All dancers must have appropriate footwear for class. No Crocs, UGGS, sandals, or boots may be worn during sneaker classes.
​
All ladies should wear a leotard, tights, and correct shoes for their class and hair must be pulled back from the dancer's face. All boys must wear fitted athletic clothes that allow for free range of movement. TDC warm ups may be worn during class warm up, barre, and stretching exercises, but must be removed after. Instructors hold the right to have dancers observe class if they are dressed in inappropriate attire for class. Please see below for our formal dress code.
