CLASS UNIFORMS
Kristen’s Dance Studio has customised uniforms available for Jazz, Hip Hop and Tiny Dancers/Tumblers. All dance students are encouraged to wear KDS dance basics apparel to and from classes at the studio, and to all events where a student is representing the Studio. For ease of action, all KDS uniforms can now be bought online. Please note the KDS Summer uniform will be re-stocked in January/February and the Winter uniform order will always be taken in advance. So an order taken in Term 1 will mean a delivery in Term 2 and an order taken in Term 2 will be delivered for Term 3.
Please be advised that all shoes, stockings and ballet leotards can be purchased from our friends at Sportspower in Forbes. Further we have an active Eco-uniform programme underway at KDS, preloved dance items are available at the studio and are individually priced by the Seller. Please check this out as a great initiative.
If you require any further clarification regarding uniforms and dance equipment please don’t hesitate to contact us by phone or by email.
