Why do we have a dress code? To feel our best! Just like you have a football jersey, or soccer cleats, we have our own dance dress code. We believe that if you are dressed ready for dance, you will feel better when you're dancing! Proper dance attire also helps our teachers see correct placement so they can help you become the best dancer you can be!
Need help with sizing? Come talk to our front desk staff and we can help size you for any Revolution Nimbly shoes before you order!
