Deane Dance Center & Crockett-Deane Ballet Company
Ballet Class Levels and Dress Codes
Deane Dance Center has the highest level of dance and ballet protocol in Sacramento, CA. Our student dancers come prepared for each ballet class in a standard dress code that distinguishes them from each level of instruction. Please note that the dress code is mandatory and we expect our student dancers to adhere to the principals of dance and ballet discipline.
LADIES: pink tights, pink leather ballet shoes, hair in bun or pulled away from face. See the chart below for the dress code levels.
Please feel free to call or email us for information about the ballet school and/or our ballet performances. If you have had dance instruction prior to attending our school, please take a placement class so that we may place you in the proper level for your abilities.
