The following is a list of places I recommend for dance gear. I require the students to have black, split-sole jazz shoes (tie or slip-on). Intermediate and Advanced dancers may need to purchase other shoes for performances. Beginners can wear any style of comfortable work-out clothes – Target has a very nice, inexpensive selection of work-out clothes. Intermediate and Advanced dancers need wear more form-fitting dance clothes. Most stores do have sales at the beginning of the school year. Also, at some stores, if you mention you are with the Los Al High School Dance Program, they will give you a 10% discount.
