Little Movers

  • Comfortable clothing that your little one can move around in freely. We recommend leggings and a t-shirt. Please make sure that your child has BARE FEET, so that they won't slip. Students can wear a leotard and tights should you want to purchase, please make sure they have ballet slippers on to prevent slipping.
