Costumes
- Costumes will be handed out in the weeks before the concert and in most cases are yours to keep.
- Some are on a hire basis from Rain & Lucky and will be marked as so. These should be returned to the studio after the concert.
Hair
- Ballet students: Tidy ballet bun with pins, hairnet and lots of spray/gel. Here’s a bun tutorial.
- Non-ballet students: Tidy high ponytail with lots of spray/gel
- Boys, or anyone with very short hair: Tidy hair
Make-up
- Stage make-up is recommended. If you’d like to do it, here’s a suggested template.
- We recommend not applying lipstick before drop-off, just pack it in the student’s bag and they can apply it/ask a teacher to apply it before the performance.
Tights, shoes, body stockings
- Ballet tights are required for all female ballet students.
- Tan tights for all other styles, including Acro.
- Dance shoes relevant to your dance style.
- No shoes for Acro.
- Black runners for Hip Hop.
- A body stocking is required if a student has more than one costume; this allows them to change backstage.
Videos / music for practice
- We will soon upload videos for anyone who wants to practice at home. In the meantime, here is the music.
