Proper uniform promotes good discipline, reduces distractions in class, and shows respect for your teacher.
Please make sure that uniform is in a presentable condition during classes. Jewelry is not permitted, makeup should be light, and hair should not cover the face. Girls with long hair are asked to tie it back neatly in a ballet bun.
Downland Dance uniform, optional warm up gear, and replacement parts (like belts) are available to buy on our online store, and will be delivered to your door. Click here to buy uniform.
