Best Dance Classes in Durham, NC

Different dance styles have different needs. While bare feet or part-soled shoes are best for most classical/folk dances, the more novice dancer in the fitness and social dance sessions might want to start with a good pair of dance sneakers or flat, leather-soled shoes (not shoes with rubber bottoms). Ballet slippers or jazz shoes are also fine. Flip flops, clogs, chunky heels, pencil heels are NOT allowed. Choose a shoe that will not slide off .

Recitals and performances are not mandatory. But if opting for them, then students need to organize/purchase clothing that is needed for such recitals time to time, to present in festive, and occasionally, group uniform clothing to correctly represent the dance and for aesthetics. If the academy can provide it, students must purchase from the academy or borrow from academy wardrobe. We keep costs very affordable and give purchase options as early as possible.
