Students DO NOT wear their costumes to the studio rehearsals. It is important, that they wear the appropriate dance apparel (leotard, tights) and the appropriate footwear, for example, if they are to perform in tennis shoes, they would rehearse in tennis shoes.
Theatrical pink tights and pink leather ballet slippers are the standard apparel. The bows of the slippers are to be tucked into the shoe. Elastic is to be sewn on the slipper, as safety pins can break and cause injuries. Tap, jazz, modern may have different leg wear requirements. Check with the teacher if you have any questions!

PLEASE label costumes, costume parts and shoes with the dancer's name, so if it is misplaced, we will all know who it belongs to.

 

DRESS REHEARSAL SCHEDULE:           THESE REHEARSALS ARE HELD AT THE PERFORMING ARTS CENTER & ARE IN FULL COSTUME.

We request that siblings and additional family members not attend the PAC rehearsal as we have found it to be too noisy and VERY DISTRACTING! Your understanding will allow us to do our best work with the dancers!
