How to be ready for dance class to start

  1. Get dressed- Our dress code not only provides a clean, uniform look to the class (which eliminates distractions with younger dancers) but also helps the dancers and teachers easily see alignment, and gives the body the ease of movement needed to fully participate in class.
  2. Pack your dance accessories- Such as a sweater, leg warmers, knee pads, and your shoes.
  3. Pack a water bottle- Refillable ones are convenient and environmentally friendly.
  4. Eat- We don’t want you dancing on an empty stomach. Be sure to eat something small and healthy before class. Bring a snack with you if you know you’ll need an energy boost while changing shoes.
  5. Do your hair- Any hairstyle is fine, so long as your hair is out of your face.
  6. Warm up your muscles – Walk, jog, plie, jumping jacks anything goes just get moving!  This will prepare your body for any dance class here at Shooting Star Dance Center.
