- Wear comfy clothes. Dads will have to take off shoes (we recommend grip socks), dancers may wear lyrical, ballet or jazz shoes.
- All ages are welcome to participate, however it is recommended for dancers 4 years old & up. This class is about fun, bonding with your family and making memories rather than mastering every dance step!
