Dance Class Attendance, Tardiness, & Dress Code
South Tulsa Dance Co. reserves the right to have students who repeatedly come to class late, sit out of class. Good attendance is imperative in having a productive class and entering class late is a disruption to the entire class and instructor. Competitive classes have a required attendance level to remain in competitive classes. Please see the Competitive Class information Sheet for required attendance. All required dance attire and shoes must be worn to all classes. Failure to wear the appropriate dancewear to class could result in students being asked to sit out of class. Students are not permitted to wear jeans or shoes worn on the street or outdoors to any dance class. For safety reasons, dancers are not allowed to wear jewelry and hair must be pulled back. Please see the STDC Required Clothing List for your specific class attire and shoe requirements. Dance shoes are not allowed to be worn outside of the dance room.
