Class Dress Code & Shoe Requirement

Your child will be required to have dance shoes and proper attire by the end of September. Shoes and dance attire can be purchased in our Z Dance Store while supplies last.

Please put your child’s name inside their dance shoes. Also do not wear your dance shoes outside. In addition, all female students are advised to wear leg warmers to keep their muscles warm, therefore, allowing their legs to be more flexible. TIGHTS MUST BE WORN. Finally, ZDC is adamant about all female students wearing their HAIR UP IN ALL CLASSES AT ALL TIMES. Finally, please make sure students carry their dance shoes in a dance bag. This is to ensure all your child’s belongings stay kept together.

If you are unsure if the shoe is a good fit for your child we will be happy to assist prior to your child wearing them in case you need to send back and exchange. It is important that the dance shoes are not too big to prevent injury from tripping and help with proper technique and dancing for your child. Please go to link below for all shoes required.
