"TO BE A DANCER YOU SHOULD DRESS LIKE A DANCER."

Dance is a discipline. Having a dress code promotes unity and professionalism in the studio. All students are given the same choices, therefore, allowing minimal “competition” in the classroom. No jeans and t-shirts are allowed in the classroom. We do not allow tummies to show, baggy clothing or clothing with inappropriate wording. Street clothes are not allowed to be worn to class. No jewelry or chewing gum is allowed. No shirts or sweaters can be worn over the required leotard.


The dress code is very basic, styles and colors. Please make sure that your child has the appropriate apparel and shoes to participate in their class. No t-shirts or tops can be worn over a leotard. No jeans, no baggy or loose clothing is allowed. No hats or head wraps. No street clothes or shoes are allowed on the dance floor for class.


  • Girls (Ages 3-6),  Black, pink, or white solid leotard. Tan conversion tights.  Pink or black dance skirts or dance shorts. 

  • Girls (Ages 7 & up), Black leotards.  Tan conversion tights. Ballet skirts or black dance shorts. 

  • Pointe and Pre-Pointe classes have an all black dress code with black leoatard, tan conversion tights, black sports bra, black dance shorts or black ballet skirt.

  • Boys (all ages), should wear black sweat pants or black knee length shorts with black or white t-shirt. 

Shoes


Shoes are a very important part of dance. Shoes must be brought to studio to change into out of outside shoes. Do not wear shoes for class outside of studio. All dancers  and cheerleaders must wear the appropriate dance shoe for the class of instruction. Label all shoes with both first and last name. No outside shoes are allowed on studio floors. 

  • Gymnastics Classes: Bare Feet. 
  • Combo (Ballet, Tap, & Jazz Classes): Ballet Pink Ballet & Tan Tap Shoes.

All tuition payments are due by the 5th of each month and will incur a $30.00 late fee if submitted after the 5th. The late fees will be added to your account and must be included in your next payment. No exceptions.  We will only be accepting automatic drafts  by credit/debit cards for monthly tuitition. We are no longer accepting checks. Please help us to help keep tuition costs down by submitting your payments on time.

POLICY

Learning to dance is not just a matter of having a qualified teacher, but having an environment that is focused on dance education. In a professional school environment students can not be distracted by ringing phones, siblings, other parents and loud conversations. Parents may view their children from the Band App Live Stream. We do not allow parents, family and friends in to observe the classes during regular class times. We will have parent viewing days throughout the season.  It is very important that instructors have each child’s attention during class time. We ask that all children are dropped off by a parent in the drop off line. We will open the door five minutes before class start time. A teacher will bring your child to your vehicle in the pick up line.  No food or drinks are allowed in the building from students or parents. This includes candy & soft drinks.


As with anything, improvement takes practice. Please make sure that your child comes to class on time. We always start with warm-ups and that is very important to the health of your child. Everyone learns at a different pace and the key is to be able to enjoy the journey. There is no substitute for a pat on the back for a job well done. Praise your child no matter how small an achievement may look. It is always a BIG ACCOMPLISHMENT for them. Never compare your child to others in the class. You do not know how many hours a week they take nor do you know if they are taking private lessons. All these factors play a part in the difference of a child’s progress even siblings.  Enjoy your children and the expereince that you have allowed them to have.  As a parent myself, I know that sometimes we can get caught up in what "all the other kids" are doing, who is taking what class, etc.  Ultimately, what the kids care about is that they get to see their friends each week, that they have fun in class while learning new things, and that they get to perform onstage!  Sometimes it is just that simple and you need to enjoy it while you can.  All too soon it will be your child up on stage being announced as the graduating senior and you will be wishing that you could whisk her back to the days of fixing her ballet bun or tying her tap shoes. 

 Smile, today is a GIFT and your child is a miracle!

Again, thank you for choosing ShowStars Dance Academy. We look forward to working with you and your child. Let's make it a great year! My door (email, cell phone etc) is always open to you for questions.
