Helpful explanation!

Wondering about the difference between Acro and Gymnastics?

While there ARE some obvious similarities, they are actually surprisingly different - especially when it comes to the artistry of the dance. This article is helpful in learning why:) https://www.acrodanceteachersassociation.com/acro-vs-gymnastics-whats-the-difference/

Dress Code: Why does it matter? When taking a classical ballet class dancers are asked to wear a specific color, perhaps a specific leotard, tights, color scheme... The reason this is so important is dancers need to be able to see the lines their body is making, they need to notice hip alignment, straight knees, lifted arches, head alignment, arm position... and so so so much more technical detail. They do not need to be distracted by color, straps, patterns, lines and random things. In addition, when a teacher looks across the room it is so much easier to catch and correct things when there is a uniform look to all the dancers.

Parents- Don't let your kids push these boundaries. You are paying for quality ballet instruction with progress you can measure - partner with the teacher by requiring dress and hair requirements that are part of the discipline you are wanting by putting your child in ballet.
