EXTREME DANCE UNIFORM
EXTREME DANCE UNIFORM
“IF YOU LOOK LIKE A DANCER, YOU FEEL LIKE A DANCER.”
At Extreme Dance we are a uniform studio.
We believe that wearing studio uniforms give students a sense of belonging to our family as well as creating an identity for our studio in the greater community.
Encourage discipline
Help students resist peer pressure to buy stylish clothes for class
Help identify non-students in the studio
Diminish economic and social barriers between students
Increase a sense of belonging and studio pride
Improve attendance
Extreme Dance merch/uniform items can be purchased year-round from the studio.
For leotards, dance shoes and other dancewear items we recommend the following suppliers:
Dance Stop – 49 Queens Drive, Lower Hutt www.dancestop.co.nz
Just Dance – Mobile and Online dancewear stockist.

GROOMING EXPECTATIONS FOR DANCE CLASS
All students are required to wear the correct uniform to every class.
Girls must have their hair in a bun for all classes except pre-school classes and HipHop. For HipHop, please have your hair tidy and secured off your face with no loose bits.
No jewellery (including watches) is to be worn in any class, except small earrings.
Underwear is not worn under leotards (just like swimming togs!) Older girls who require a bra for support must ensure that there are no visible straps. Specialist dance underwear can be purchased, and if worn, must not be visible.
Your look at all times should be professional. We take your dance training seriously, and we expect you to take pride in your appearance for class.

Testimonials
Luna has had two terms at extreme dance and absolutely loves it! She started at 4 years old and although she was a bit shy at first, the extreme dance teachers were amazing at helping her relax and enjoy moving her body. Her confidence has grown inside and outside of the studio. She loves that I can watch her First Steps class on the big screen in the waiting area, and we both enjoy talking about the moves she learned after class. I highly recommend extreme dance to any future “dance mums” and kids out there.
JANELLE
Extreme dance is my kids second home, the teachers and their friends are like a second family (which is so important when they spend so much time there!). They learn so much from the amazing teachers, who 100% have the kids best interests at heart when it comes to dance and them growing as a person and they have built such amazing and strong friendships with the other dancers. Both the teachers and kids are so supportive of each other and I couldn’t ask for a better dance studio for my kids to attend.
