NEW Dress Code 2024
To create a more unified look among the dancers (and to assist parents with finding the correct items for the dress code), we have improved and streamlined our dress code! Please read carefully below.
We created a partnership with the dancewear company “SoDanca” to set up an online store with their company for you to access. Many of the pieces your dancers will need will be on this site and they have a specific code to help you find them (e.g. “SoDanca TRISSIE SL13).
If the item on your dress code has a SoDanca code, you must purchase that exact item through SoDanca, or from another store that has that specific SoDanca item. If you use the discount code on the online store’s main page, you will get a 15% discount from the SoDanca store all year!
How To:
Create an account by following the link here.
Once your account is approved, shop for items through SoDanca
Be sure to use the discount code and get 15% off your purchases!
Let us know if you have any difficulties or questions.
Details:
Students moving to a new level who need a new leotard style this year must buy the correct leotard from SoDanca before their first class.
Students who will wear the same leotard style as last year may use what they currently have until they grow out of it, or until March Break 2025, whichever comes first.
All students must have the correct colour, style, and brand of leotards, tights, shorts, shoes, etc. by March Break 2025.
In future years, the correct style, colour, and brand will be required by the first class in September.
