If a dancer is in more than one Cecchetti level, they will need more than one leotard.  Hair must be in a bun, no jewelry is permitted. Girls need Revolution Prima Pink footed tights with clean pink ballet shoes. Boys should wear black dance tights, black ballet shoes, a dance belt and the a white shirt from Corps Dancewear for their grade level.

COSTUMES

We spend many hours determining the correct costume for each class. They are always age-appropriate. All students will need one costume for each subject they train in. Tights and shoes are not included in the price of the costume. In an effort to ensure that costumes are delivered in time for studio photographs and for organized distribution to our students, costume order forms are due in of November. Costume manufacturers do not accept cancellations or offer refunds. Therefore, Ann Parsley School of Dance does not refund costume fees. Costumes cannot be ordered unless the deposit is paid for in full.
