What’s needed
All classes will need ballet and tap shoes, as well as leotard and tights. Skirts are fine if they are attached to the leotard. You can find these things at Target and sometimes even the thrift store, if you don’t want to invest a lot. There is a dance store called Forte in Hoover and another in Homewood called Applause. Forte and Applause will have better quality items. The color of attire and shoes is up to you.
