Class attire is athletic. Students must wear a t-shirt, athletic shorts or leggings (no jeans or overalls), and Irish dancing shoes, sneakers, ballet or gymnastic shoes. Hair should be pulled back and jewelry removed.
We have a limited supply of used dance shoes available for sale at our studio. If we don’t have your child’s size in a used pair, we can direct you to a website where you can order the shoes online. Your child is not required to purchase Irish dance shoes in order to take dance classes.
Our studio is located in the Providence Square Shopping Center, which is on International Drive, off Providence Road in between Fairview and Rea Roads. Our studio is located in the interior of the building. If you park near the Kumon Reading Center and Izzy’s Café, there are glass doors located in between these businesses. Enter through the glass doors; we are the last door on your right.
Many children take dance class just for the pure enjoyment of dance and for the exercise. Your child should get a beginner costume when they are doing performances or would like to go to competitions. Performances and competitions are not required although they are encouraged. Once your dancer moves out of the Beginner level, you would consider the purchase of a school dress. Both the beginner costume and the school dress are available through the school.
