Can You Wear Underwear With a Dance Leotard?

While many dancers wear undergarments during practice, most dancers prefer not to wear traditional undergarments beneath their leotards during competition.

Undergarments tend to move around and become exposed during routines which can distract the dancer and lead to point deductions from the judges.

Trying to conceal an undergarment during competition can be quite challenging, so most dancer choose to go without.

Dancers uncomfortable with the idea of not wearing undergarments often wear flesh-toned thongs, high-cut panties or Y-back underpants.
