We concentrate on two categories of dance for the whole year and include the other three categories for 10 weeks each. Click here for a fuller description of DanceXtra . Because of our size, we have many sections of appropriate alternate classes available. When a class is missed the student is invited to make up the lesson in one of these alternate classes. Most students wear a body suit and tights but this is not a necessity.
Any clothing is okay as long as it allows freedom of movement.
The same goes for jazz students, who should wear soft comfortable shoes such as jazz shoes or ballet slippers, and gymnastic students who take classes in gymnastic shoes, sneakers, footies, or bare feet. All of your dancewear needs can be met in the dancewear shop on our premises. Our serious older ballet students will want to wear their hair in a bun like the proficient ballerinas they hope to become. All conservative hair styles are acceptable. On the last class before the Recital in June, all students receive a Recital Participation Trophy.
