The Center for Ballet Arts
Pink tights and ballet slippers should be worn for all ballet classes along with the indicated color leotard (kids - adult). Hair should be neatly tied back for small children and pinned up in a bun for Ballet III thru V levels. Suntan color tights may be worn for modern, jazz, or tap classes (transition or footless for modern). Black patent Mary Janes (3800c/3800) are required for Tap IA and IB, black tap oxfords for Tap II and higher. Tan jazz shoes, slip-on style preferred, are required for all levels of jazz.
