Additional Notes

preschool dancers

The dress code for All That Jazz Dance Studio is mandatory and students are expected to abide by it. It is important to “look the part” of a dancer, as this will set all students in the right frame of mind before they even enter the dance school in Newton.

*Please do not use the ribbons that need to be tied with the tap shoes. Any kind of elastic that will allow the student to slip the shoes on and off with as minimal help as possible is beneficial to everybody in the dance classes.

All students should have their hair pulled back and away from their face in a ponytail, bun, braid, etc. Students should not wear any jewelry in class that could snag or fly off and cause injury to themselves or others. Even small earrings can pose a risk if they fall out and a student steps on them in bare feet. Dance clothes must be form-fitting. Older students should not wear baggy attire as this makes it difficult for teachers to make injury-preventing corrections or adjustments and poses a risk to the student.
