Teaching Practise

From time to time, it is necessary for the teachers to use physical contact in order to correctly instruct the pupil correctly and safely. A teacher will always ask permission before engaging in this type of correction or spotting.  For training purposes photography and videography may be taken to assist a student / teacher in class. 


Examinations/Performances


Uniforms/Dance wear & personal grooming

After the free trial period, please wear the correct uniform for class.

Uniform items may be ordered via Shine Theatre School's website. (www.shinetheatreschool.com) Alternatively, you are free to source the uniform independently, but items must adhere to the published uniform list.

Our logo items such as hoodies, t shirts, bags etc may take around 3 weeks to arrive in the post. 

We kindly ask that you do not replicate our logo uniform items elsewhere and only purchase from the official supplier on the website. 

You do not have to purchase all the uniform in one go, we recommend starting with the correct shoes. Please use the brands we suggest on our shine dance shop website, and resist the cheaper shoes you may find in supermarkets, home bargains, or eBay / wish type sites. A quality shoe will make a lot of different to the look and stability of dance moves, and sound in the case of tap dance. 


Please wear long hair in a bun.


No jewellery to be worn for class for safety reasons.


Conflict of interest 

Shine Theatre School is a dance school that offers many different styles of classes, with qualified and experienced teachers. Seeking tuition from another dance teacher or school that is not part of Shine is against our ethos and is a practice that is considered unacceptable, disrespectful, unnecessary and a conflict of interest. Students who do wish to attend classes outside of Shine please give your 30 days notice to Miss Wendy that you will be stopping attending Shine so that classes may be pursued with other coaches. Most reputable dance and theatre schools operate under this policy.

If you wish to have private tuition from any teacher at Shine, this can easily be arranged through Miss Wendy, and studio time with the teacher will then be allocated when it becomes available and booked officially through the Class Manager portal.Please do not ask the individual teachers to organise a private lesson as this is against our studio policy. 


Choreography & Routines 

All choreography and routines (solos, duets groups etc) are property of Shine and must not be used outside of Shine’s classes classes and events without Miss Wendy’s consent.
