We Dance Together (Ages 2.5, 3, 4 with Guardian) and Creative Movement (Ages 3, 4):

Dancers wear clothing that allows for freedom of movement; dancers may wear canvas or leather ballet slippers or leave their feet bare with no socks. BBT requests that dancers do not wear jewelry, specifically necklaces or bracelets that can cause distraction or get tangled, or ornamental items such as tiaras or crowns that can hinder movement and distract; small earrings are okay.

Uniform: Classes require a uniform.
Make-up Classes:
All dancers are welcome to take make-up classes in an equivalently leveled class for pre-scheduled holidays and incidentally missed classes.
