Bottoms
Please wear shorts that have a drawstring (e.g. board-shorts) if possible. Leggings or "yoga pants" are fine, but it's best to wear drawstring shorts over the top of these. If you have the choice, plain black board shorts are best.

Please wear a durable t-shirt that covers the shoulders, has a normal/high/crew neck, and doesn't have any decorative glitter, sequins, or anything other than regular clothing material. V-neck and plunging neck lines are not appropriate. If you have the choice, a plain black t-shirt is preferred.​​
