1. Basic Sacred Dance Worship Garment - Description:
The Basic Sacred Dance Worship Garment Set includes a blouse, skirt, and culottes. The culottes are to be worn underneath the skirt for modesty's sake. The blouse has a round neck with button closure in back, and long or short sleeves - depending upon style chosen. Long sleeve styles have a buttoned cuff. The skirt is a full circle skirt consisting of 9 panels with an elastic waist. The culottes are � length, also with an elastic waist. This costume allows for great freedom of movement and is truly beautiful when worn with an ephod or overlay. Fabrics used:
Style #1 - White crepe backed satin, (100% polyester), used for blouse, culottes and skirt. This style blouse has a long sleeve with buttoned cuff. Crepe backed satin is an elegant but durable fabric and will give years of use. This fabric is washable - gentle cycle only - or hand wash - no bleach. This style can also come in other colors, but we recommend ordering the entire costume in your color of choice.
Style #2 -Silkessence fabric, (also 100% polyester), used for blouse, culottes and skirt. This is a very lightweight, slightly silky fabric that also is washable - gentle cycle only - or hand wash- no bleach. Costume comes only in white. Blouse style can vary using an open, short sleeve, or long sleeve with cuff as in the crepe backed satin style. The short sleeved blouse, skirt and cullotes makes for a great dance worship attire when ministering outdoors when the climate is warmer. This also is a durable fabric and will give years of use.

Note:We also have available a washable white men's dance worship shirt that is very loose fitting and appropriate for dance worship when worn with a comfortable pair of black slacks.

2. Sacred Dance Worship Ephods and Overlays - Description:
Sacred Dance Worship Ephods (sometimes called overlays) are worn over the basic dance costume. The style that we use for our ephods slips over the head and has ties at the side to secure the front to the back. Most of our ephods are reversible and are so noted when you click onto the picture to view the garment. Specialty ephods are ephods that we can not offer in volume, and therefore have a limited amount available for purchase. Instructions and suggestions for care of your garment are included. All sacred dance worship ephods will come with a card or paper explaining the meaning behind the colors and design (if applicable) used in the ephod, and accompanying Scripture to verify the theme. Also included is a "How To Care for Your Sacred Dance Worship Ephod" card giving helpful suggestions to keep your product in its best shape for a long period of time.

Dance Worship Billow Banners - Description:
3. Worship Dance Billow Banners are large sections of cloth used in dance worship and are approximately 44" in width and vary in length from 3 to 5 yards. Each banner end is reinforced with interfacing and special utility stitches used for added stability. The ends also have a capped pole, (3/4" in diameter and included with the banner), sewn into a casing at the end of the cloth for ease in handling the banner. Hand loops are optional at each corner of the banner if one does not want to use the banner poles, and if desired, need to be specified at time of order placement. Hand loops are not recommended, though, as the life of the banner will be greatly increased by using the poles rather than hand loops. Billow banners come in 3 lines of fabric - silk, silk essence, and lame. Lame is the most fragile of the three fabrics, while silk is the most durable. Silk is the recommended fabric of choice for most billow banners. Each worship dance banner comes with suggestions for caring for your product.
Note: Worship dance billow banners come with decorative stitching at each end as shown in the pictures. Please specify what color of decorative stitching you would like with your banner when you place your order.

4. Praise Dance Streamers - Description:
Praise Dance Streamers are available in either solid or theme colors. All adult streamers come with a swivel and a 36" attached painted, wooden dowel rod (either gold or silver in color), and are approximately 6.5" wide x 9 feet long, unless otherwise noted. Fabric used for praise dance streamers is lame. All children's streamers are approximately 6.5" wide by 6 feet long, and come with a swivel and painted, wooden dowel rod 24" in length. If desired, we can send just the fabric streamer without the dowel rod. Please specify as such when ordering.

5. Sacred Dance Tabrets and Praise Hoops - Description:
Sacred Dance Tabrets are hoops wrapped in ribbon that have a fabric center and mylar fringe. Praise hoops are the same but have no fabric center to them. These tabrets and praise hoops come in 8" diameter styles and are intended for adult use only. They have 1/8" or 1/16" wide fringe and an 18" fringe length.

Each sacred dance tabret or praise hoop comes with a card or paper explaining the meaning behind the colors and design used in the hoop, and accompanying Scripture to verify the theme. Also included is a "How To Care for Your Sacred Dance Praise Hoop/Tabret" card giving helpful suggestions to keep your product in its best shape for a long period of time.

Note:Sacred Dance Tabrets can be utilized in situations where tambourines would not be appropriate because of the sound that tambourines make. All of our tabret styles can be substituted for tambourines when using tambourine patterns for dance.

6. Praise Dance Tambouine Tassels - Description:
Praise Dance Tambourine Tassels are 18" in length and have a center loop through which you can thread a short piece of 1/8" ribbon. The tassel can then be snugly tied to a tambourine - usually at the 4th slot opposite from the finger hole. All fringe used in our tam tassels are either 1/8" or 1/16" wide and is tarnish resistant. All tassels come with 4 extra pieces of 1/8" ribbon for tassel ties. A card containing suggestions on how to care for your praise dance tam tassel is also included. Tassels may be ordered in a solid color or may follow the colors used in one of the themes for streamers or tabrets. Child's tassels are 12" in length.

7. Praise Dance Casual Wear - Description
This category includes clothes that are both modest and allow for freedom of movement, yet are appropriate for both church and public settings. As such, the articles are not as elaborately designed as those intended for sacred garment usage. Sometimes this style of comfortable clothing is also known as "street wear" .

8. Sacred Dance Flags - Description
Sacred Dance Flags come in a variety of sizes and are usually made of lame...though we will branch into using silks and possibly chiffons in the future. The flags have a trim near the casing of the flag and come on a painted wooded dowel rod and are on a swivel tube to promoted freedom of movement. All flags come with a Scripture card explaining the meaning for the colors used in the flag and a flier explaining how to care for the flag properly.
