Pre-Dance Dress Code:

Dancers need black Mary Jane style tap shoes, and pink leather ballet shoes for girls, black ballet shoes for boys.  Please purchase your shoes at a dance store such as Definitely Dance in Exton to ensure proper color, fit and style. Any color leotard and tights are fine, and long hair should be tied back. Please, no skirts or tutus. Shoes purchased from Amazon are not acceptable. All items should be in a bag that the children can identify as their own, and please put names on shoes.
