It's important for students to abide by a dress code policy for the following reasons:
  • A neat and tidy appearance sets an attitude of attentiveness and respect for students, teacher, & the art of dance.
  • Teachers must be able to see the dancer's body outline clearly in order to make proper corrections on posture, alignment, etc.
  • Hair must be properly secured & tied up off of the face & neck for all styles of dance.
  • Jewelry must not be loose or dangling.
  • Gum chewing is not allowed due to danger of choking and appearance.
  • No loose fitting pants, jeans or t-shirts (they are not dance attire).
  • No costumes are allowed in class unless a dress up day is announced by the individual teacher.
DANCERS ARE REQUIRED TO WEAR COVER-UPS WHEN ENTERING AND LEAVING THE STUDIO.
Don't forget that AAD has dancewear and dance shoes available for purchase!  Please refer to our dress code policy for details.
