E & M's Dress Code Requirements:
Dress Code & Hair Policy
Students who are not properly attired and don't have their hair properly fixed will not be allowed to participate in class. Our attire guidelines are put in place as an honor to the classical world of dance. The uniform look allows the teachers to focus on making sure proper technique and muscles are being used and minimizes distractions in class. Also, when all students are dressed like professional dancers they dance like professional dancers. The staff at E & M appreciates your cooperation and attention to our dress code.
