Proper uniform is required for all classes. We believe proper dance attire and uniformity creates a professional and disciplined environment for our students. It is also very important for the teacher to be able to observe and correct students’ alignment. This cannot be done if students are wearing baggy or insufficient dance wear to class.
Our students are expected to provide, at their own expense, proper attire and footwear for all classes. This includes but is not limited to, leotard, tights, dance shoes, and hair accessories. Students must abide by the designated hair and dress requirements for the class they will be attending.
Failure to adhere to our school dress code will result in a warning. At the second offense, you will be asked to change and use something from our community box to attend class. Having students in the proper dress code requires a joint effort from parent and student.
TBT keeps a community dance box with gently used dance attire and shoes in our studio at all times. Please feel free to look through and take what you need and give back what does not fit anymore. These community dancewear boxes stay full because you guys bring in dance gear that no longer serves your family. So awesome! Let’s keep the reusing going and be respectful of the items donated.

- All students are REQUIRED to wear proper cover up and/or street attire over their dancewear to and from the dance studio. (This is simply for safety.)
- Students must refrain from walking outside in their dance shoes. It ruins them!
- There is to be no jewelry worn during any dance class. Exceptions include stud earrings. Please make sure jewelry is removed before entering the studio so that it is not lost
- There should be no chewing gum in classes.
- WATER ONLY in the studio. Please do not bring sports drinks or juice of any kind. If a student has multiple classes that day a healthy snack is permitted before and after class start time. Please remind your student to not leave a mess, or walk around eating a snack.
- Please send your student with water to every class! We cannot provide water for students every class and we do not have a water fountain.
