What's in Your Dance Bag?

We all live such busy lives! Between school, homework, and travel…it’s important to have your dance bag packed and ready to go at all times. (We hate to see the disappointment on our teacher’s face when we come unprepared for class.)

We asked our dancers what they have in their dance bag. Here is what they said:

  • Their dancewear (and even an extra set, just in case!)

  • Cynthia King Vegan Ballet Slippers

  • Hair supplies (bobby pins, hair ties, gel, hair spray, brush)

  • Water bottle

  • Healthy vegan snacks

  • Phone charger

  • Bandaids

  • Ice pack

  • Tigar balm

  • Extra socks

  • Toe tape

  • Spike tape

  • A tennis ball

  • Tampons/pads

  • Deodorant

  • Needle and thread

Is there anything we’re missing?!
