Attire and Footwear

Dance and Tumble Fashion 101

Please read this carefully. 


  • Do not wear any shoes that have been worn outside. This includes tennis shoes for Hip Hop. The grit can damage our beautiful marley floors as well as your shoes. Your dance shoes should be carried in your dance bag until it is time for class.
  • Students should have a dance bag for shoes and belongings.
  • Label all shoes and attire with first and last names.
  • Refrain from wearing perfume or jewelry to class.
  • No gum chewing is allowed, and only water is allowed inside the studio.
  • All dance shoes must be purchased at Dance Esteem to make sure they are the proper fit and uniformed for class and stage.
  • We have attire in our lobby. If we do not have your size or the color you like in stock, we would be happy to place an order for you!
  • Do not bring valuables to class. Dance Esteem is not responsible for lost items or valuables.

TUMBLING

What does my child wear for class?

A leotard is recommended.  However, if a leotard is not worn, we ask that your child wears a more form fitted t-shirt/tank top/sports bra and leggings/shorts.  Baggy clothing can be dangerous for both your tumbler but also the instructors if they have to spot your child on a skill.

Is footwear/shoes required?

No! Your child can go barefoot or wear socks.  However, bare feet are preferred because socks can be slippery on the mats.

Tumbling Leotards

We carry leotards.  Please order online under your Esteem StudioPro account and we will have your order ready for you the next time your tumbler is at class!
