<div>This was one of the things the Tony Oxendine brought up at
a recent seminar. He feels that we are chasing away new dancers by
requiring them to look a certain way. We have lost 80% of dancers in
the past 20 years. We have to do anything and everything we can to
attract new dancers and closing the door in their face because they
aren't dressed properly is not the way to do it.</div>
