Dance attire, including ballet attire - that dancers would wear to class at the studio.
-
Hair can be in a pony tail, securely fixed so you are not having to fix it after every turn.

What you don't need to bring
-
Dancers won't need hip hop shoes. Wear your runners, (less chance of getting those shoes lost)
-
Dancers won't need their ballet, character shoes or skirts.
Lunch
It is best to have a lunch organized so when lunch break starts dancers can eat. Lunch is 30 minutes. Being in down town Vancouver there are several food outlets close by.
Audition Class
We are fortunate to have an audition class on the schedule for Intermediate and Senior Dancers (Juniors do not audition.) These classes are intended to give the dancers experience in the audition process. KCDS encourages ALL of our Dancers to take part. Think of the Audition Class as 'another' class - attend, have fun and enjoy the experience!
Keep those bags zipped up
Dancers will need their dance shoes and dance bag. Bags normally are kept in the dance room with you. Please remember when you leave your bag - ZIP IT UP - don't walk away and leave your bag open. Don't have valuable items in your bag. If you must keep valuables ($, phone) - please make sure they are tucked in a pocket/down the side of the bag/hidden - not laying on top. Keep your bag zipped up please!
Buddy up please
If your dancer is going to be moving around the hotel without an adult please speak with them about being with a buddy. The hotel is full of dancers for the weekend, as lovely as that is - it's important to remember that we are still in a public building with many people we do not know. No one is too old to have a friend by their side.
Sat when we meet to give out the wrist bands we will take a group photo!
