Our dance uniform is important as it puts students in a positive frame of mind for learning, makes them feel part of the Florian family and enables the team to teach safely and effectively. Ballet Pointe in Winchester is the nearest dance shop in the area and supplies all our uniform. We also hold termly nearly new sales and offer an opportunity to trade items as children progress through the grades. We recommend that all items of clothing are clearly labelled with your child’s name.

Hair should be tied back away from the face for all classes and any hair accessories should match the uniform. From Grade 3 and upwards, we do prefer hair to be styled into a suitable classical ballet style such as a bun or a French chignon. Good practice for developing your hair styling skills!

No jewellery (other than stud earrings) or brightly coloured nail varnishes should be worn to class.

The ISTD released new uniform in 2024 and the RAD launched their new range earlier this year. Both are switching to use sustainable fabrics such as regenerated nylon waste which reduces environmental impact and elevates the performance of dancewear with unparalleled durability and stretch. Items are also manufactured in the UK reducing the carbon footprint. With a few items that we currently use being discontinued, we felt it timely to give all our uniform a refresh and support the move to sustainability.

Please download our uniform documents to see details of the new uniform. We do not expect everyone to go out and purchase new items immediately, but when student grow out of their existing uniform, students will need to purchase the new items.
