I usually order through my child's ballet teacher. She will take measurement and helped to buy. If it doesn't fit, she will exchange for me. Save my time when I get ballet teacher to help me with purchase order. My child has to get a new set of ballet attire and shoes as she experienced growth spurt this year.

Thanks for the information.


Noted on OKH, Sonta dancewear(which I may just pop by) or prob just purchase from the school itself.

Some teachers set up a network of parents where they can get 2nd hand leotards & skirts from each other, because the kids outgrow their attire so quickly at the "primary" age.

My DDs skipped the pre-primary and primary level. As I understand, these levels the teacher is able to stay with them inside the studio during exam. Both started taking exam at grade 1 and above.

Honesty, Thanks for being honest ! lol ! got it ! so it’s fine to just go for the grading from grade1 onwards right… i just worry if i skip primary (as i skip pre-primary too)… she may not be exposed to the proper grading routine…but she took up jazz exam this year… next year will too… is it from grade 1 the coaching class will be 6 months too ? really tiring right?
