What to Wear to Ballet Class: A Simple Guide for Little Dancers
Getting ready for ballet class should be simple and joyful. Here is a quick guide to what your little dancer needs — and how to keep everything tidy and pretty along the way.
The basics
For most young dancers, ballet class calls for just a few essentials: a leotard, soft tights or leggings, ballet shoes, and hair neatly tied back. Comfortable, well-fitting pieces let children move freely and focus on their dancing.
Tights and leggings
Soft, breathable tights or leggings are a class staple. Our dance essentials are chosen for comfort and a perfect fit, so little legs can bend and stretch with ease.
Hair and finishing touches
A tidy bun keeps hair out of the way and looks the part. A pretty hair band or clip adds a little sparkle — you will find handmade hair accessories lovingly made by Miss Camille.
Carrying it all
A dedicated ballet bag makes class mornings easy and makes your dancer feel special. Our handmade bags are one of a kind, hand-sewn in La Jolla — and they make a treasured gift, too.
Above all, keep it comfortable and let your child enjoy the magic of dance.
