DANCER COMMITMENT

• I will be respectful and friendly to all teammates.

• I will be respectful to my coaches. I will not be critical of the coaches in any way. 

• I will arrive early enough to team practice to be ready to take the floor with shoes on when it begins. 

 • I will not miss team rehearsals for any reason other than emergency or a required school activity. Work schedules will be managed to allow attendance at all practices. 

 • I will wear official team gear to every practice. If I arrive not wearing team gear, I will call a parent to bring it or I will go get it.

 • I will wear dance shoes during team practice. For girls this means either Latin Sandals or Standard pumps. If my feel get tired or hurting, I will switch to practice shoes.

 • If I am dating a teammate, I will not show public affection or request that person as a partner. 

 • If I miss a class, I will watch the video and work on my own or with a teammate to learn what I missed.
