The Dance Centre CLE - BALLET (5, 6, 7 & Teen) & PRE-POINTE

Welcome to The Dance Centre CLE's Ballet (5, 6, 7 & Teen) & Pre-Pointe uniform selection page. Please note the color required per uniform item. The products below are suggestion, you may shop the website.

Girls:

• Black one-piece leotard (any style)
• Pink tights or flesh-tone tights
• Pink split-sole ballet slippers or flesh-tone slippers
• Hair secured in a neat bun using a hair net and bobby pins- no headband
• Dancers in Ballet 5, 6, 7 & Teen may wear a black ballet skirt

Boys:

• White fitted shirt
• Black tights (for boys)
• Black ballet slippers

• No headbands, watches (including Apple watches and Fitbits), or jewelry.
• Buns must be well secured with a hairnet and bobby pins so they do not fall out during class.
• Socks should not be worn with ballet slippers and jazz shoes.
• Ballet slippers for young dancers with drawstrings should be tightened/adjusted for snug fit, then knotted OR cut excess drawstring taped to the inside of the shoe for future adjustments. Very young students have sensitive feet so too much excess string that is tucked and taped inside shoes can be uncomfortable. Slip-on ballet slippers with no drawstrings are also acceptable (please no isotoner house slippers).
• Any shoes used on the dance floor, including hip hop shoes, must be clean and carried in for class. Students will not be permitted to wear outdoor shoes in the studio. • No lotions on skin - contact makes the floor slick and dangerous.
• Shoes and ballet slippers that still fit from last season, regardless of color, may be worn this season. We will do our best to adhere to shoe dress code colors for show costuming.
