For further information regarding Dance class etiquettes, student presentation and conduct, please read below.
Uniform
For our dance classes, pupils are required to wear the correct uniform with neat hair as it not only provides a disciplined approach to class but also, on a health and safety note, it allows teachers to observe and correct alignment.

Studio conduct
- No food should be eaten in the studio not only for the mess it may cause but also a choking hazard.
- Water bottles, contacting water only.
- Personal items should be in a bag, placed under a chair so students will not trip over it. DancePro Academy is not responsible for any personal items,
- Jewellery, watches, fit bits must not be worn to class.
- Teachers should be addressed as Miss, Mrs or Mr, followed by their Christian name.
No jewellery should be worn to class as it can get caught on other students. Children wearing jewellery will be asked to remove it.
Hair
Please ensure hair is tied back off your child’s face. Hair should be in a classical style for ballet with no fringes.
Toilet
Should your child wish to go to the toilet during a class, I will ask them to complete the exercise they are doing and then go. Please encourage your child to go before their class as once one child asks to go, it’s more contagious than the measles!
Additional Information
The number of classes on the timetable will increase as the school grows. Please contact Miss Gill if you are interested in taking a class as we may be able to accommodate immediately.
