Dance
Programs - Guidelines
Dress Code:
To keep the School professional, and to ensure dancers are properly
dressed to get the most from their lessons, we are maintaining
the dress code introduced
two years ago. Ballet pink tights, body suit, with short, 3/4 or long
sleeves, t-shirt, bicycle shorts (optional),
leg warmers to the knee or white knee socks, (optional), hair up, Highland
shoes, or gymnastics shoes for beginners. No jewellery is to be worn.
Senior dancers may wear t-shirts.
(Most of these garments are widely available at the Bay, Zellers,
Walmart, etc. Shoes and specialty items are available at Malabar
and Brio. Both Malabar and Brio have our dress requirements.)
To Bring to Class:
All Dancers: Notebooks and pens
Primary/Beginners:
Skipping rope, 2 meter sticks
All Others: Jig shoes, skirt, swords
Attendance:
Please come to your classes at least 15 minutes early,
so that you have time to change, talk with your teacher, check
the information table, and warm up. Remember to allow for possible
delays, such as traffic or weather. Consistent attendance
will benefit your overall learning, confidence and knowledge,
and will ensure that you do not fall behind the rest of your
class.
Absence:
If you know you are going to be away, please notify your teacher,
or KR,
as your absence does affect lesson planning. If you are
sick on a Saturday class day, please notify
your teacher as early as possible. If you have not been able to
reach your teacher before she leaves home, you may call the
SHCC at
564-1062, between 8am and 9am and ask to speak with
your teacher or with KR. (For weekday evening classes call
or email
your teacher during the day to notify her if you are unable
to attend)
Refreshments:
Note: No food (especially peanut products) or
gum are allowed in any studio. Teachers will give water
breaks during each class.
Attitude:
Come mentally and physically prepared to your class,
so you can put forth your best effort. You will then
be happy with
yourself,
and proud of your accomplishments.
Preparation:
Katharine and Teachers are pleased to help you with
extra lessons for preparation for Competitions and
Examinations. There will be regularly scheduled classes once per
week for competitors and those preparing for high level examinations.
Start your lessons in plenty of time so that you will be ready
and confident at the time
of the competition or the examination.
Information:
It is very important to check the information
table or binder every time you come to class for announcements
about school activities;
e.g. concerts, workshops, competitions, events.
