Additional Information
Dress and Grooming: Classical dancers are traditionally very clean, neat and simply groomed. Long hair needs to be pulled back from the face. Creative Movement and Primary Levels must not have any dangling hair around the face and eyes but must have it clipped well back from the face if a ponytail is not possible. Elemenary 1 and above, students must have hair either in a bun or well-clipped if hair is either too short for a bun or dangles out of the bun.
No adornments in class please, except for very tiny and nondescript earrings. No fancy hair accessories! Black leggings may be worn in class with permission on colder days. Regulation wrap sweaters may also be worn.
Class dress requirements are listed on the Dress Requirements page.
Performance: We have a happy, family attitude about performance, while encouraging as professional an atmosphere as possible for our young dancers. Plan on gathering for high tea at our mid-year class demonstration and a choreographed recital after Session 4. Most costuming is provided by CBA and will be retained by CBA.
Pointe Work: while pointe work is possible and carefully pursued in this school, it is not advisable for every child. We require the physical evaluation of a dance podiatrist and we do not encourage any student to feel they need to master pointe.
Other forms of dance: at this time, ballet is what we offer! However, the syllabus we use does expose and prepare students for the pursuit of other forms of dance.
Inclement Weather: We will generally follow the Lake Washington School District closures for the Sammamish Plateau.
