The Sock Basket located on Laurens Road knows all of our dress code requirements. For assistance please see the helpful staff at their store location. They can fit shoes and have all clothing requirements for classes. 

*We define nude as the color closest to your own personal skin tone. Tights and ballet shoes are sold in a variety of colors and we encourage dancers to make the choice they are most comfortable with while still maintaining the dress code.
