To help protect the wooden floor, please bring a change of clean shoes, either smooth soled sneakers or flat soft soled dance shoes. (Hard soled shoes tend to scratch the gymnasium floor and some black rubber soled shoes leave marks, so please bring an alternative.) Please change shoes on the entrance mat to help prevent outside wet, salt and grit from getting on the wooden floor.
