Look and feel the part
Not only is a uniform an indicator of unity, but it also offers a variety of other benefits for both students and teachers in class. Learn more about these below.
Teamwork
Having a standard dress code encourages students to work as a team. More cohesiveness and a greater bond between students can be achieved when they look the same and all adhere to the dress code of the studio. There is a sense of belonging and no distractions looking at what others are wearing
Practicality
Wearing a uniform ensures dancers are dressed correctly to enable teachers to see the alignment of their bodies while dancing. Wearing the uniform also ensures their clothing is safe and practical, as well as putting them in the right mindset for dancing. Wearing loose clothes or items with heavy zippers can be unsafe and inhibit the ability to properly participate in class.
Respect
Wearing the uniform and having hair neatly tied up is a sign of respect. Being tidily presented, with clean, neat uniform and well fitting shoes, shows you are serious and you care!
