Studio Dress Code 2009/2010

We are asking parents to review the Lititz Academy of Dance Dress Code with their dancer. This dress code will be enforced! Students who show up to class without proper attire will be given a warning, the second time they will be asked to observe. Please note that hair is a crucial part of our dress code. (See "Hair" section of Dress Code.)

LAD reserves the right to change this policy at any time without prior notice. Any changes to the Studio Policies and Dress Code will be posted online and in the studio.

***Existing students who purchased new dance shoes for the 2008 recital may wear what they have. However, we are transitioning all Jazz students to the same tan jazz boot. When you need to purchase shoes, please purchase tan slip on Jazz boots in Capezio or Bloch.
