At Next Generation Dance Company, all classes have a specific dress code. Proper dance wear is essential to ensure safe practice, as well as for our teachers to be able to give the most accurate corrections that will allow your child to progress quickly and efficiently. Each level is required to wear a different colour uniform which is purchased right at the studio! Please see below for the colour leotard your child will have for their class. Please note: shoes are not sold at the studio at this time.
