Choosing Different Dance Team Uniforms And Costumes

By Lana Bray


When putting together a dancing group, selecting dance team uniforms can be a great way to unite the members. It is also a good way to show others at competitions who your dancers are representing, and can identify your club from others. You can also choose a special uniform for showcases and performances.

The choice of uniform is often fairly similar for differing types of dancing. Most are well suited to the group wearing loose tee shirts and shorts or leggings to allow free movement. An easy way to tailor this to your specific club is to have tee shirts printed with the name of the group and the logo. You could also print contact details on larger items so as to encourage new members and advertise the group.

Leotards are also popular in dancing, especially with classical styles like contemporary and ballet. These are also relatively cheap, and plain colours are often favoured for lessons. Black and navy are popular and work well with dance skirts. Again, these can be bought in bulk by the club and sold to the dancers as they join.

It is also possible to buy leotards in a variety of patterns and colours, which perfectly suits flamboyant competition situations. These leotards are most favoured by disco and jazz styles. Although some dealers will offer bespoke outfits, this is not generally necessary because of the vast array of styles offered, but individual sizing may be required, which could incur an additional cost.

For group competitions, many teams like to choose a theme to which the music, dancing style and costume are tailored. School days and army themes are generally quite popular, so these sorts of styles are usually cheap to buy in bulk. Most companies will have a range of ideas for the teams to choose from.

Most clubs will also choose to specify a certain type of shoe that must be worn as part of the uniform. Sometimes this will be defined by the type of dancing being taught, for example ballet and tap require specific shoes. Although some clubs allow dancers to begin with bare feet, simple jazz shoes or character shoes are versatile and will suit dances such as modern and contemporary, and can be worn with character outfits in performances.

As well as clothes to be used for practice and performance, you may consider printing other forms of clothing that your dancers can wear at other times. This is a great way for the members of the club to feel united and to promote the club and attract more people. This can also be tailored to advertise a specific event like an important end of year performance, for example.

Most clubs will choose to have basic dance team uniforms that can be made and bought quite cheaply. This makes it accessible to the members and increases the sense of unification. In addition to this, special costumes can be bought in addition to the uniform so that the dancers really feel at their best when they are performing.
