Tap shoes are a must for the children; leotard, tights and ballet slippers are recommended but not required. Adults are welcome to wear tap shoes, ballet slippers and dance attire if they so desire, but athletic shoes and clothing are sufficient for the adults. This is a great way to bond and have fun while introducing dance to your child!
