[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to a prominent dance school on LI growing up and had to buy costumes for the recital every year. Classes ranged from 3yo tap/ballet to competitive dance troupe but all had to buy costumes for the recital, which was a multi-day professional-looking affair.

[b]Your dance studio sounds like this which is great if you want your child to have the option to dance at a high-level [/b]at some point. It's totally reasonable if you just want a place for your daughter to learn some dance so you might want to look elsewhere. [/quote]

I went to a few on Long Island too. Which one did you go to? 
I disagree with your connecting expensive costumes to a child having an option to dance at a high level. The two are not connected. If a child has talent and skill they will be able to dance at a high level. NOT if they have expensive costumes. [/quote]

The direction of causation is wrong. I did not say expensive costumes are indicative of a good studio. I meant that good studios often charge for costumes to make for a flashy show.

I went to David Sanders Dance Dynamics. I was actually NOT in the company (the competitive groups) but was fortunate to be in the older classes that were taught by the owner. I was pushed to a high level even though I wasn't in the company, which I found a great benefit[/quote]
