New Uniform
Colour scheme is the traditional Tanwood colours of Pink Black & Grey
Tanwood has a strict uniform and hair code of practice.
Uniforms should not be purchased from anywhere other than our online shop and definitely not supermarkets, as these are not the regulation uniform and badly fitting .
Girls must always have their hair tied back in a neat hairstyle away from the neck .
Ballet must always be in a bun, but for modern the head must be able to lie flat on the floor, so two french plaits or plaits across top would be more suitable.
(Black tights are not suitable for ballet , so when a classes are close together pull the black tights on over the pink tights and leotard for speed)
See the dance store website for information about the uniforms for each grade.
