Why is there a dress code at Norwalk Dance Center?
-The simple leotard, tights, and skirt combination makes it possible for the instructors to see the dancer’s bodies so they can make the proper corrections.
-Young dancers are often distracted by their own dance wear. -Learning to dance and work together as a team can be more easily achieved by removing the distraction of different dance wear.
