Will there be a costume fee?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We aim to keep costs below $30/number for our mini contortionist ages 3 to 11 and between $45-$75/number for ages 12 to up older contortionist. We wear a uniform ballet costume. Costs will vary based on style (ballet costumes tend to be more expensive) and age (the younger the dancer, the cheaper the costume).
If you already have a suitable costume, you can wear your own instead of purchasing a new one.
