Dress Code and Etiquette

Dress Code

The dress code is for all enrolled dancers to unify presentation for our classes and to promote optimal learning.

Ballet

Dress code brings a sense of discipline and unity to the art of ballet. To help this process be easier, not only have we listed items necessary to perfect the typical ballet attire, we have also partnered with On Pointe Dancewear in Anaheim to help you with your search. They also offer a 10% discount to our students, if you purchase with them. Simply go to the store and mention you are from OC Musica. They will help guide you with your selection and apply the discount. We have also worked with them in selecting items that are recommended to you to help simplify your search. Of course, specific brands are not required, but colors should still match the group. Weekdays, leotard color and tight color must stay the same. However, Saturdays are our freestyle day! Any color/style of leotard is fine.

Etiquette

Attendance
 Consistent attendance is crucial for real progress. If you want to become a successful dancer, you will need discipline. Dancers must use good time management skills to ensure they don't miss classes.
Tardiness Arrive 10 minutes early for class to prepare yourself. If you are late, wait for the exercise in progress to be over before entering the dance floor.
Water bottles Water bottles are a must. Please bring your own water in a secure container to class to be used during the designated water breaks. Don’t forget to take your water bottle home with you.
No talking No talking during class. Talking means that you are not hearing what the teacher is saying. Listening carefully is a critical part of the learning experience.
Respect
 All students should have respect for their teachers and classmates. They should listen when their teacher corrects another student as the suggestion may also apply to them. Students should NOT correct each other.
