Ages 3-5 Light Pink Ballet Dress is optional, as there is more flexibility with separates to be able to wear the leotard under itchy costumes and the future. https://a.co/d/0i3NTUSh

✨ALL DANCERS: Don’t forget to designate a dance bag with your essentials including a water bottle. Be sure to label your child’s name on everything except for ballet shoes as they will need approval on the fit from the teacher. Then once approved you can put your child's name inside the sole of each shoe.
