Due to the nature of dancing there are some basic requirements that need to be met in terms of footwear and clothing. We aim to keep things simple and our uniform conforms to the regulations set out by the IDTA for dancewear. Adults do not need regulation uniform however you are asked to wear appropriate clothing and correct shoes for all classes.

Uniform is available from our My Dance Store website.

K2 branded items and K2 Dance Academy bags are only available directly from K2 Dance Academy are available to order here: Order form
