Please bring to every class:
-Easy clothing and shoes to wear over their class attire that they can remove themselves and redress easily after class.
-Water bottle
-Recommended ballet class attire listed below
-Dance Bag :
Having a designated ballet bag stocked and ready is very helpful for not forgetting ballet items and it might make getting to ballet a little bit less stressful :) You can include packing extra hair supplies (Brush, hairspray, rubber bands, lots of pins, clips, hairnets), extra dance clothing for the little ones in case of accidents, ballet slippers, their dance outfit,, warm ups, and water.
Recommended Class Attire: Dress Code
Please choose the option that best suits your child regardless of gender. I have gently used dance clothing available for a small donation prior to the first class.
Please do not mix and match but choose one option. Tights and shoes must match in color.
Option 1 : Pink or flesh colored tights and a solid color leotard. Optional thin ballet skirt for Creative Ballet, and Pre-Ballet. No tutus or tiaras. Primary 1, 2, no skirts. Leather soled pink or flesh colored ballet slippers. Elastic drawstrings trimmed and tucked in, no bows. Please no shoes from Target or H&M but leather soled ballet shoes from a dance store.
Option 2: Black tights or leggings with a black or white shirt and black ballet slippers. Elastic drawstrings trimmed and tucked in, no bows.
All Classes: Long hair secured back in a bun (preferred) or ponytail. For short hair use headband and clips. Please clip all bangs back to avoid any hair on the face. How to make a bun tutorial links below.

No jewelry besides pierced studs. Wrap knit ballet sweaters and leg warmers are allowed to keep them warm if needed. ‘The Leotard' has everything you might need.
Refund and Rescheduling policy
Refund Policy : all classes offered by Katarina Svetlova
A full refund will be given if requested 5 days prior to the start of the first class. Credit towards another class series will be given if a refund is requested within the 5 day period prior to the start of the first class. Once a series has begun I cannot offer any credits or refunds.
If class is cancelled due to weather, teacher illness, Theater scheduling conflict, or Covid safety restrictions, a make up class will be offered. Either in-person or via Zoom in place of any refunds. I cannot offer make up classes if a child misses classes due to travel or illness.
There is a chance we will have to reschedule a class at The Dekum street Theater due to an event. A make up class will be offered with ample notice at least 2 weeks.
