Please arrive 5–10 minutes early so you have time to get settled, meet the teacher, and use the restroom.

• Parking: Street parking is available around the studio. Some evenings are busier due to nearby restaurants, so plan a few extra minutes to find a spot.

• Don’t stress about attire for your first class — we keep it casual for trial lessons!

• If your dancer is taking a ballet/tap combo class they would need ballet & tap shoes (we sometimes can fit you dancer for a borrow pair for their class, let us know their street size ahead of time)

• Acceptable options:

  • Athletic clothing that allows movement (leggings, tank, t-shirt, etc.)

  • If your dancer already has dancewear: leotard and tights (any color or style is fine).

• Hair: Pulled back away from the face for safety.

• Water bottle! We encourage dancers to bring their water bottles into class (but please no juices or mixes!)
