Students must come to class if possible in white indoor tabi. If the student has trouble acquiring them, please ask the teacher for assistance. If it is impossible to purchase tabi, students must come to class in socks. Another essential tool for practicing noh is a noh fan. Orders for fans will be taken on the first day of class. For students not able to purchase one, alternatives will be suggested.
