What to Wear to Class
Como Physie doesn't have a strict uniform, but we do ask that everyone wears appropriate activewear that's safe and comfortable for dancing.
Quick Guidelines - All Ages
✓ DO Wear:
|
✗ DON'T Wear:
|
- Fitted activewear or dance clothing
- Bike shorts, leggings, or fitted dance shorts
- T-shirts, singlets, crop tops, or leotards
- Activewear skirts with bike shorts/leggings underneath
- Hair tied back
|
- Long party dresses or costumes (trip hazard!)
- Loose baggy clothing
- Jeans or restrictive clothing
- Shoes or socks (we dance barefoot)
|
Why These Guidelines?
Safety: Fitted clothing prevents trips and tangles
Technique: Teachers can see your body alignment and help you improve
Movement: You need to jump, stretch, spin, and dance freely
Barefoot: Better balance, grip, and foot strength
Specific Recommendations
Petites (2-4 years)
Top: T-shirt, singlet, or fitted activewear top
Bottom: Bike shorts, leggings, active shorts, or activewear skirt
Important for parents: Please save party dresses and tutus for home! Activewear helps little ones move safely and build their skills.
Juniors, Teens & Seniors (5-17+ years)
Top: Fitted t-shirt, singlet, crop top, sports bra (with high-waisted bottoms), leotard, or old performance wear
Bottom: Bike shorts, leggings, dance shorts, or fitted activewear skirt with shorts/leggings underneath
Ladies (18-70+ years)
Top: Fitted t-shirt, singlet, activewear top, leotard, or old performance wear
Bottom: Leggings, bike shorts, or dance pants
Como Physie Uniform (Optional)
We offer Como Physie tops and tracksuits (jacket & pants) that you can purchase. While most members wear these to competitions, you're welcome to wear them to class as well! They're a great option if you want to show your Como pride.
Not required for class - Regular activewear is perfectly fine!
What to Bring
✓ Water bottle - Stay hydrated!
✓ Hair ties - Keep hair secure and out of your face
✓ Towel (optional) - For after warm-ups
Keep It Simple
Basic black leggings and a fitted t-shirt work perfectly! You don't need expensive dance-specific clothing to start. Most activewear from sports stores or department stores (Target, Kmart, Big W, Rebel, etc.) is ideal.
The Bottom Line: Comfort + Safety + Freedom of Movement = Perfect Physie Outfit!
