(Dancers identifying with male uniforms can opt for ballet shoes in white.) Tights in ballet pink are traditional, but students can also wear beige, skin tone or black. Black body suit of any style. A shear, single layer ballet skirt, of any colour is optional.
• Jazz & Lyrical -Black Slip-On Jazz Shoes. Tights in beige, skin tone or black. Black body suit, any style. Dance shorts are optional.

Little Stars ages 6 & under may wear body suits in black or pink for any class. 

Dancers identifying with male uniforms can opt for a tight fitted tank or t-shirt in black or white, instead of a body suit, but note there are male body suits that are recommended. Black leggings or compression pants, similar to what is worn for sports are also recommended. Baggy shorts or pants do not allow for visual correction or placement of the body; this can lead to injury or poor technique.

Remember to ask your dancer about undergarments they might want and ask us if you are unsure what to wear or purchase!
