HAIR

​

Hair in a bun, french twist or double buns. If short hair, please make sure it is out of

your face and off the neck. Men included.

​

The perfect ballet bun should look like this, especially for our performances.

Try to make it as flat as possible. No donuts permitted.

​

Use BLOCH Hairpins (not bobby pins) that match the color of your or your dancer's hair.

LINKS TO GIRLS LEOTARDS
Notes about ballet shoes

Especially from the Levels 1 and up, we strongly suggest getting shoes from brands like Bloch, Capezio, Sansha or any kind from a professional ballet store or website.

Target, Payless and similar stores are not specialized in ballet shoes and will work against getting the right ballet technique.

Ballet shoes from these stores are not manufactured correctly to allow for the proper articulation of the feet in ballet class.

Also please avoid any prints on shoes. The shoes should be plain, solid color, light pink. Draw strings must be tied and tucked in. Shoes should be labeled with your dancer's name before the first class of the year.

​

Our preferred shoe is a canvas shoe with split sole; Bloch "Performa" 

​

Black for the boys, ballet pink or skin-tone for the girls.

Notes about our floors

In order to keep our expensive dance floors from becoming irreversibly slick, we have a strict policy:

​

NO BODY LOTIONS/ OILS can be worn to class

NO FABRIC SOFTENER with socks or clothes

NO STREET SHOES in the studio spaces

NO FOOD in the studio spaces

​

THANK YOU for respecting our studios.
