JDPAC Dress Code
The studio has a unique dress code for each class. Dress code is mandatory.
We believe that the intent that goes into a dancer preparing for class leads to pride and attention to detail in class and an understanding of the importance of the traditions that we follow in dance. Following this guideline establishes a sense of professionalism in class, helps unify students, diminishes economic and social barriers between students, increases a sense of belonging and studio pride, and improves attendance.
NEW this year for your convenience, all dancewear should be ordered through our online Dance Boutique.
Just click the class your child is enrolled in and the required dancewear items are listed.
Additional items may be listed but not required.
General Guidelines:
Dress code. All girls require a leotard, tights and shoes for all classes with the exception of Acro. Skirts are optional for ballet/tap classes. Dance shorts can be worn for jazz and acro classes. Boys may wear athletic t-shirts and shorts or pants.
Hair must be properly secured and tied up off of the face and neck in a ponytail for all styles of dance. Ballet students should have their hair in a bun. Jewelry should not be worn. Small stud earrings are acceptable. Gum chewing is not allowed due to the danger of choking. No loose fitting pants, blue jeans or t-shirts (they are not dance attire).
