Uniform
To ensure the safe practise of dance it is important for all students to wear set uniform during classes. There is a set uniform for all levels and genre of dance.
Any students with long hair should have their hair tied neatly away from their face - 'Buns' being the most popular during ballet lessons for any female students. If a student has shoulder length or shorter hair and finds it hard to tie their hair back please ensure a suitable alternative to keep their hair off their face. For example; a head band.
Any new students please feel free to wear something comfortable for example; leggings and t-shirt and bare feet. After a student’s first initial free trial class, uniforms can then be purchased at an appropriate time throughout the term.
Currently uniforms cannot be bought through Rosewood Dance Academy.
Please contact Rose and she will give you details of dancewear shops and popular websites where you can purchase uniform.
