Dani Grant School of Dance Ballet Uniform and Class Etiquette Policy

​

To maintain a disciplined, professional, and respectful learning environment, all students must adhere to the following uniform and etiquette standards. Failure to comply will result in exclusion from class participation.

 

Hair
   •    A ballet bun or appropriate style is compulsory for all students from Grade 1 upwards and is strongly encouraged from Primary. The bun must be securely fastened with hairpins to ensure it remains neat throughout class.

   •    No loose hair is permitted. Short hair must be neatly pinned back with clips or a headband.

 

Uniform
   •    Students must wear the designated leotard, ballet tights, and soft ballet shoes for their grade level.

   •    Pointe shoes must be properly fitted and approved by the Teacher before being worn in class.

 

Jewellery and Accessories
   •    No jewellery is allowed in class, except for small stud earrings or items worn for religious reasons.

   •    Watches are not permitted in class.

 

Class Etiquette
   •    Students must arrive on time and be fully dressed in the correct uniform before entering the studio.

   •    All students should warm up quietly before class begins.

   •    Respect for teachers and fellow students is expected at all times—this includes listening attentively, following instructions promptly, and maintaining a positive attitude.

   •    No talking during class unless asking a relevant question.

   •     Wait for designated water breaks—students may only drink water when permitted by the Teacher, typically after jumps/allegro. Do not leave the space to get a drink unless given permission.

   •    Mobile phones must be switched off and stored away before class.

 

These rules ensure a focused, respectful, and professional learning environment.
