Why do we have a dress code? To feel our best! Just like you have a football jersey, or soccer cleats, we have our own dance dress code. We believe that if you are dressed ready for dance, you will feel better when you're dancing! Proper dance attire also helps our teachers see correct placement so they can help you become the best dancer you can be!​​

​

Summit dress code

​​

To promote inclusivity, Summit has options for skin tone tights, ballet and jazz shoes. We want all of our dancers to feel represented and included.

 

Uncertain of your shade? Just come to the front desk, and we can help color match with our sample tights!
