What to Wear

A studio uniform will be introduced in Term 2. Until then, students may wear:

Any plain-coloured leotard
Or a plain t-shirt paired with shorts or a skirt

Ballet shoes are preferred and will soon become part of the official studio uniform.

Trial Classes:
Students attending a trial class may participate in bare feet. Please note that socks can be slippery and are not recommended for safety reasons.
