    • With the exception of Hip Hop and characters classes, dancer's hair must be parted on the right and slicked into a bun on the back of the head (not the top). Secure with a black hair net and bobby pins. No hair pieces or bun covers that are not a part of your costume.
    • Hip Hop Dancers may wear their hair in any style. Please think about quick changes. A bun is acceptable for Hip Hop hair. You may want to get a hair extension piece in order to change hair quickly.
    • Create a clean bun in your dancer's hair. Your instructor will be leading a quick demo during the last 5-10 minutes of their classes (Pre Ballet/Tap Through  level 3).  This will happen the week of May 9th 2010. Bring gel, hairspray, fine tooth combo, rubber bands and bobby pins and/ or hair claws so you can practice with the instructor.
  • Tights/Leotards
    • Bloch brand.  Auburn Dance Academy sells  the correct brand of tights for your convenience.
    • If your class is required to wear a leotard for the Christmas Show, please choose a camisole or tank style leotard.
