The new dance season is here, and if you're leading a competition team, you know the prep starts long before the first performance. From organizing team uniforms to creating a streamlined travel system, setting your team up for success means planning ahead and Plié Promotions is here to help.
Whether your team is headed to local stages or national competitions, having the right gear makes all the difference. Here’s how to make sure your dancers are styled, organized, and comp-ready from the very beginning.
Must-Haves for a Polished, Professional Look
✅ Custom Warm-Ups
Matching warm-up sets make a strong first impression at every event. Not only do they give your dancers a cohesive, professional appearance, but they also build unity and studio pride.
✅ Team Jackets
Studio-branded jackets are perfect for layering, traveling, and showing team spirit. Add dancer names, titles (like “Senior” or “Captain”), or studio logos for that extra-special touch.
✅ Senior Sashes
Highlight your graduating dancers with custom senior sashes! These are perfect for recognition at competitions, banquets, or senior send-off moments.
✅ Travel-Friendly Garment Bags
Keep costumes protected and organized with custom studio garment bags. Add dancer names and team levels to make backstage changes quick and easy.
