DL Online LIVE
For the duration of the provincial lockdown, we will be operating virtually with a 15% discount on all tuition fees. This discount will be applied on the 15th when charged to the card on file. Please see below for additional payment details.
Uniform Requirements
It is important that dancers be dressed in the required dance attire for their classes. One wouldn't go to hockey practice without the proper equipment. Dance is no different! You cannot do a ballet class properly when dressed in street clothes. Please make sure your dancer is dressed in the required dance clothing and footwear.
Dancewear requirements for all classes can be found here: https://dancelondonstudio.com/dancewear-requirements/
Uniforms can be purchased year-round from many dance stores around the city.
