Team Attire & Uniform
Phox Dance Academy students are required to adhere to a dress code for class uniformity and to insure that instructors are able to see dancers' bodies to correct alignment and technique. All of the required dress code items are available on order, via our office.
Only DANCE SHOES allowed on our floor without exception.
Wear your Phox studio attire with pride. Phox Dance Academy is an inclusive dance space where students of all gender expressions are welcome. We want our dancers to feel comfortable and confident in class so they can dance their best therefore we offer options to reflect our gender-inclusive dress code.
All students are expected to have a neat and tidy appearance, with long hair pulled back away from the face into a ponytail or bun.
Buns are preferred for Modern and Ballet. Warm-ups, shorts, ballet skirts, etc. are permitted at the instructor’s discretion and must be removed upon the instructor’s request.
Undergarments - Dancers should wear supportive undergarments for their anatomy (sports bras, dance belts, etc.) We recommend not wearing underwear if dancers choose to wear leotard and tights.
Dance Shoes & Dance Wear - Can be ordered via the office
