For Tap classes at Tap ’n Arts Dance Studio, we want every dancer to feel comfortable, confident, and ready to move! Students are required to wear appropriate Tap shoes, which can be purchased directly from the studio, or you may choose a similar style and color from another retailer. Only clean, non-marking dance shoes are permitted on the studio floor—outdoor shoes are not allowed.

Dancers should wear comfortable, breathable dancewear that allows for full movement, such as leotards, leggings, fitted tops, athletic wear, or other studio-appropriate clothing. Tap ’n Arts Dance Studio spirit wear is always welcome! Please avoid denim, skirts, dresses, or loose-fitting clothing that could restrict movement or create a safety hazard. For safety reasons, jewelry—including necklaces, bracelets, watches, and large earrings—is not permitted. Hair should be securely pulled back and away from the face for every class so dancers can move freely and safely.

Our dress code reflects industry best practices and helps create a safe, comfortable learning environment where dancers can focus on developing Tap technique, building confidence, improving rhythm and coordination, and enjoying the energy and excitement of Tap dance.
