At DancEdge we expect all students to wear the appropriate clothing for their style of dance and their level. In dance, the body creates various lines which cannot be seen if the student is wearing loose baggy clothing. Tight fitting clothing is also worn to ensure correct body alignment and technique.
All Students should come to class with neat and tidy hair pulled back from the face. Hair that cannot be tied up into a bun may be worn in a ponytail. Head bands are permitted to keep loose hair off the face. It is a good idea to keep a hair kit in your dance bag. This may include a brush, fine tooth comb, small spray bottle with water, elastics, bobby pins and hair nets. Students coming straight from school should take a few moments to tidy their hair before entering class.
