The Dress code (attire and hair) is designed to allow the dancer ease of movement without distraction. It also provides a clean unobstructed view of the dancers body, which allows the teacher the ability to observe the dancers line, posture, alignment and technique. Following the dress code is part of the structure of dance class and builds on other skills obtained through dance such as self-discipline, responsibility, determination and self-respect.
Leotards, leggings, shorts & tops are all to be purchased through FDC. Tights & shoes may be purchased at your favorite dance store.
