Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
you should probably start stretching to get ready!. start with some basic toe touch's ect!.!.!. then sit on the floor with you're legs out straight and together and touch you're toes and hold it!. then spread you're legs apart and stretch to each leg and then to the middle!. remember to hold each stretch for at least 15 seconds!. for an outfit you could wear some stretchy shorts, like soffe shorts and a tank top!. dependent upon how serious the studio you're dancing at is about dress you could consider tights-- tan ones for jazz, and a simple black leotard under the tank and shorts!. you'll also want to get some jazz shoes, and white tennis shoes for hip-hop!. just relax and have fun with it-- that's what dance is ultimately for right!?

Ok what me!! said isn't really true for jazz and hip hop!. For the first lesson, like most people said, just wear shorts and a tank top, and then you can get an idea of what most people in the class are wearing!. Your instructor should be able to help with this too!. Bring socks you dont mind getting dirty for jazz and tennis shoes for hip hop!. Stretching is minimal outside of class especially the first time, jazz takes more flexibility but then again not really that much!. Just have fun, and dont worry about how you look!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

you should actually start stretching now, so that you can be more flexible when you get to class!. it is always good to have your splits down :)

and also, you should wear a leotard and tights, but wear a tanktop and some soffe shorts or something similar over!. you can see what the other girls wear and just adjust your clothes! dance is so much fun!. good choice on starting!Www@QuestionHome@Com

You have to wear a black leotard and pink tights!. I have been dancing since i was three! i take every single class there is!. I know the dress code!. before you go to class, stretch so that you don't pull a muscle!. one time i forgot to stretch and i pulled a muscle!.!.!.it hurt soo bad!Www@QuestionHome@Com

just be yourself!! and pay attention when they teach a combination, just in case they make you do it in groups
