Dress Code 2025-2026:

Dress code is a vital part of every dancer’s training, designed to promote unity, discipline, and focus while allowing instructors to effectively assess and correct technique.

During the summer session, dancers may wear any color/style of leotards, as level-specific attire is not required. However, pink tights remain mandatory for ballet, and Ballet 2 and above dancers must have their hair in a bun. Proper dance shoes are still required for all classes.

General Guidelines:

  • Jewelry is not permitted, except for small stud earrings. Dangling earrings and hoops are strictly prohibited for safety reasons.

  • Necklaces, bracelets, watches, and Fitbits are not allowed.

  • Dancers who do not adhere to the dress code will not be permitted to participate in class.

  • Label all dancewear and shoes with your child’s name.

  • Razzle Dazzle Dancewear in Pearland Town Center has our dress code on file. Let them know you are with Coomer Ballet to ensure you purchase the correct attire.

  • Do not buy shoes from Target, Academy, or Walmart, as they are often the wrong color, uncomfortable, and poorly fitting.

Dancers must be in proper dress code no later than September 1st.
