All dress code items can be purchased through the studio with the exception of tap shoes and hip hop shoes.

 

​*Please excuse the delay as we source a Canadian company for our shoes and tights. We are working to match our existing dress code items. Any tights can be worn for practice. Please refrain from purchasing new shoes before we confirm a Canadian supplier. We appreciate your patience as we work to avoid purchasing from the United States.
