Grooming
A high standard of grooming is an essential part of dance discipline and as such is part of the proviso for choosing to study dance (please visit our website for uniform requirements). Please ensure you make a good effort to maintain neat and tidy grooming by wearing the correct uniform at all times. Ballet leg-wear must be either ballet socks or regulation ballet tights. From Primary ballet upwards, hair must be secured in a bun for every lesson. Here is a link to a tutorial video of How To Make A Ballet Bun: https://youtu.be/QA0GTR85IxU. For modern and tap, hair must be worn in a neat style e.g. pony tail, plait or bun with fringes sprayed and pinned off the face securely. Please use a specialized dancewear supplier and fitter for all items of uniform and shoes particularly.
