 Dance Gala 2026

The Gala performed at the end of the dance year is a culmination of all the efforts and hard work that has been put forth during the dance year. The performance is usually held at the end of June/early July - the specific date is dependent on the "school calendar" and dates of graduation. This year’s 30th Anniversary Dance Gala Celebration will be held at the Noel S Ruiz Theater in Oakdale, NY on June 28, 2026 at 2pm – more info to follow throughout the dance season.

 

DRESS CODE


At Dance Sensation we do not enforce a specific “studio” uniform, for it is our belief that it is the child’s hard work and determination that makes him/her a dancer, not his/her clothes. However, it is necessary for Dance Sensation to apply a dress code guideline for the 2020-2021 dance year. It is important that students wear proper attire to dance classes in order to receive the best class possible in their selected dance genre. Take special note of the shoe color for each class as it will be most helpful when the recital season arrives. Please refer below for the proper dress code for each class.

  IMPORTANT INFO:

For All Classes

Hair MUST be tied back in a ponytail or bun...hair is not allowed to be left down. Please do not wear loose or "dangly" jewelry. Do not wear loose clothing as it makes it impossible for the teacher to see the students' body and make proper corrections. At Dance Sensation we do not allow children and younger dancers to wear two piece dance outfits. Please remember that dance shoes should be purchased "to fit", not "for room to grow"! Shoes that are too small or too big greatly hinder a student's progress.
