Hair & Dress Code

We ask all female students keep their hair long enough to be pulled into a low ponytail and bangs long enough to be pinned back in a pouf. This is our competitive Hairstyle and is required of every female. If you require a haircut please speak with the Directors or if you are unsure about the guidelines when deciding on a haircut.

SWS has a dress code for ALL competitive students.

For Ballet, Choreography, Tap, Lyrical, and Jazz classes ALL competitive dancers are to wear black dance wear (body suit/ half top/ dance shorts- acceptable items- Shorts slightly above the knee and t shirts for boys) with proper shoes for each class.

Advanced Companies 1 and 2 students are to wear a black body suit with Beige Tights – (tight black dance shorts are optional) NO black tights.

Advanced Companies 3 to 8 and P.T. Crew (Junior & Intermediate) are to wear black dance clothing however NO black tights. Beige tights, Ballet tights or bare legs only. If wearing shorts- Shorts must be long enough to cover the entire bottom and top must fully cover the chest area -no revealing tops.

Appropriate dance wear in colour may be worn for the following classes; Hip Hop, Vocal, Break-dance, and Drama. It is recommended and encouraged that students bring baggy clothes for Hip Hop class.
