DANCE SHOES & TIGHTS

EDE Dancers & Parents, we will be ordering dance shoes & tights in January. EVERY dancer on our team MUST have this same dance shoe & performance tights! This is part of team unity & professionalism, which we will be critiqued on at competition.

Dance Shoes: If you purchased dance shoes earlier this year (or if you were on our team last year) we will be ordering the same dance shoe. All dancers who do NOT have this dance shoe will need to purchase it. The price for these dance shoes is $32. If you have shoes from earlier this year, or last dance season, they will need to be in PERFORMANCE CONDITION or you will need to order a new pair! This means your dance shoes can NOT have holes in them, nor many scuff marks. At the beginning of this dance season, most dancers tried on dance shoes for correct sizing. However, some dancers may have been absent or may have grown. We will have sizing pairs for dancers to try on during class time the first few weeks of January. Parents, if you would like approve of the size that will be ordered for your child, please come 5-10 minutes before their class time or near the end of class to have your child try on a dance shoe for sizing.

Performance Tights: If you were enrolled in classes with 24/7 Dance Company last dance season then the tights we will be ordering are the same performance tights that were used for the recital/competitions last year. ALL dancers on our team MUST have these performance tights. The cost of these tights is $6. If you have these tights from last year’s performances then they must also be in PERFORMANCE CONDITION or you will need to order a new pair! This means your tights can NOT have ANY holes (big or small) or any runs. In order for us to order the performance tights we need to know each dancer’s height & weight. This information is needed in order for us to order you the correct size of tights. Tights are an under garment, therefore we will not have dancers try them on for sizing, therefore is it VERY important that you give us accurate height & weight for each dancer to ensure you get the correct size ordered for you.

***If you are needing to order dance shoes and/or tights, you will need to be fitted for shoes & bring in your measurements for tights by Jan. 14th, we will order the dance shoes & performance tights right away & you will need to pay for them no later than FEB. 11th! Dance shoes & performance tights will be handed out as soon as they arrive, if you have paid for them in full & ALL other dues are paid up to date.***
