what a dancer wears is important.

Dress code
Each division has a specific uniform that the dancers are required to wear . The uniform helps create a sense of discipline and order while allowing the teachers to see what their bodies are doing. All female students are required to have their hair secured in a bun, with pins, hairnet, and headpiece according to level (no headpiece for children's division). This may require some at home practice as this is sometimes a daunting task. Please ask us if you need help! Students without the designated attire will not be
allow in class.
See the dress code for your division -
Ballet Shoes
Please make sure that your dancer has the proper fitting shoes for whatever class they take. It is especially important to monitor young children’s shoes, as they grow quickly and you need to make sure the shoes always fit properly. Please ensure your dancer has the right shoes for the right class. (See dress code for your division). School and Pre-Professional Division are required to have ribbons on their
technique shoes.West Point Ballet trains from a traditional and classical syllabus in which it is the standaArd attire for girls. Ribbons create a better aesthetic for the visual art of ballet.
