We strive to ensure your child dances in a clean, safe and professional environment. Our professionally-equipped main studio features hardwood flooring, full-length mirrors and ballet barres. Our studio is enhanced by a stereo system and professional lighting capability. Our second studio space also has a stereo system, and ballet barres. The school is located at our convenient location with ample parking within St. Demetrius Catholic School.

A dress code not only ensures that a teacher can see and correct a dancer’s alignment and posture, but also teaches students discipline, which contributes to overall focus and energy by “dressing the part,” dancers feel like dancers. Specific dress requirements can also create unity among the dancers instead of drawing more attention to some than others, much like a school uniform policy. A dress code shows respect for the work and can go a long way in minimizing distractions.

A dancer should always be perfectly dressed and groomed. It is part of the self-discipline which goes hand-in-hand with the dance training itself, and is evidence of the pupil’s serious approach. Boys should wear their hair short and neatly groomed. Girls should choose a neat style with long hair tied back, it must be in a bun to give a good line to the head and neck (See video instructions >>). Long fringes should be pinned back to show the face clearly, and no jewelry should be worn during the class. It distracts the teacher’s eye and if it flies off can prove dangerous to the others in the class.
