The Dance Element dance school in Wilmington NC requires all male & female dance students to Dress in appropriate attire for every Ballet & Dance Class.

Form fitting dance wear is essential to our instructors when correcting body alignment, and when spotting and assisting Acrobatics students with tricks. 

The Dress Code creates equality and discipline in the dance classroom, as well as eliminates distractions  to help our dance students focus

and take their dance lessons seriously.

Resources for Dance Attire & Dance Shoes:

• The Dance Element's studio "Lobby Shop"

 Our studio offers a great selection of new and gently worn dance wear to our students!

Every item in our Lobby Shop is priced from $1- $20, and available for dance students to purchase at any time, throughout the season.

The Dance Element has a nice selection of gently worn Dance Shoes, and we are pleased to offer a Shoe Exchange  program for our dance students.

The shoe exchange is a great savings opportunity for parents of dancers with growing feet!

If we have a pair of appropriate dacne shoes in your child’s size, we will issue the shoes to you in exchange for:

A $10 Deposit or

an outgrown pair of shoes.

These shoes can then be traded in for larger ones as needed! 

Of course, we can’t guarantee always having the right size.

The Dance Exchange  is a dance supply store located in Wilmington NC on the corner of Wrightsville & Kerr Ave.
