1. Dance Shoes
Wear the shoes you'll dance in.

Move as you would during a praise dance performance to check comfort and range of motion.

The skirt hem or pant legs should fall at your preferred length.
4. BUST & WAIST COMFORT
The fit should be secure but comfortable.
5. CONFIRM FINAL FIT
Make sure the garment feels comfortable and allows full movement before making any alterations.
2. Size or Alter?
✦
Simple Length Adjustments
If the fit is good but the garment is too long, try a simple trim
SLEEVES TOO LONG
Simple trimming may help.
Skirt Hem Too Long
Trim carefully to your preferred length.
Pant Legs Too Long
Trim both legs evenly.
OR
Consider a Different Size
If the fit doesn't feel right, choose another size.
Choose One Size Up
- Shoulder feels tight
- Bust or waist feels too smug
- Movement feels restricted
Choose One Size Down
- Bust or waist feels too loose
- Garment feels too roomy overall
- Shoulders and sleeves still allow comfortable movement
