What to wear: please dress comfortably in workout pants and some kind of top that isn't so baggy that it's hard to see your posture and form. Dancers often like tank tops with a layer or two on top. Sometimes it gets warm! There are plenty of hip scarves to borrow in class. Most choose to go barefoot. Socks can get slippery, but any dance shoes are also fine.
